NEW! Fantastic purple brooch
This is best argument
for unsigned I've come across yet. A 1 3/4" stroke of
stone-use genius coupled with sheer craftsmanship and top-notch
quality. Royal purple cabochons surround a vaulting dome of
pear-shaped and round faceted stones in the same shade, all to bring out
the focal points: two iridescent, rainbow-finished, purplish-blue
cabochons and a single large molded, faceted, striated, openback
stone. The entire effect is outstanding. The back echoes the
attention to detail in this work and is done in flawless goldtone.
Very, very minor scratches to iridescent cabochons but in overall
wonderful condition. A truly stellar piece. JO-USp001

In the style of Haskell
This piece is strongly reminiscent of the work of Haskell ~ cleverly and intricately worked faux pearls, antiqued goldtone filigree leaves, all on an ornate filigree mounting.

Massive older brooch with
turquoise cabochon centerpiece
This is one solid piece! I didn't know whether to measure it or weigh it. It's a whopping 3" across and features a detailed leaf-motif setting with a large prong-set, turquoise-colored cab in the center, surrounded by eight smaller ones. Finish appears to be antiqued and it has a nice mellow look to it. Safety clasp, excellent condition. F0-USp008 $30
