Truart Sterling Birds Brooch

Lovely Truart (Tru Art) Sterling Birds and Flowers Brooch

So dear! I believe the circular Truart brooches like this one were made in the early 1940s; if you every look through jewelry patents of that time, you will see this style type, a circle enveloping flowers and creatures. This is thin sterling, fashioned in flowing, dreamy shapes and many delightful details. Notice the darling seed pod tendril running to the inside right and curling below the larger bird. The circle itself is 2" in diameter, but the brooch extends 2 7/8" from tailfeathers to tailfeathers. The brooch is in Excellent condition and signed Truart Sterling on an artists' palate shaped in back.   $40

Unique Art Deco Carved Jade Glass Fish Pin

Straight from the 1920s comes this extreme Art deco pin. The engraved gilded metal repeats classic geometric step patterns with some outlined in black enamel. Even finer engravings can be seen within; be sure to see the enlarged image. In the center is an octagon shaped panel of carved jade glass; you can see the carve marks in the back and the hand done look around the openings. These old Art Deco pins are hard to find in top condition, but this one is an exception, with no enamel wear and very little wear on the gilding. A nice size at 2 1/8" x 1 1/8", the pin fastens with an open C-clasp and is in Very Good+ condition. $58

Rare pony brooch

Adorable, Lively Vintage Pony Brooch

Rare. He's doing what ponies love, prancing wild in a flower-strewn meadow of yellow enameled flowers with green leaves and faux pearls. Decked out with rhinestones in his mane and tail, he holds in his teeth a pink enameled jeweled rose for his lady. He deserves to be worn by someone who loves him as much as I do.

At 3 1/4" tall and 2 1/2" at the widest, he's a big boy from the early 1950s, around the time Coro was making their pretty horses. My friends insist this brooch is a lost Coro, but he's unsigned. He's high quality with good heft, made from thick cast metal finished with golden plating. The near-Excellent condition is remarkable--I could not find any wear in the plating on the front, and on the back, only a bit along the edges. Rhinestones are bright and faux pearls are faultless. You (and I) may never find another like him. $150
