"Retro" Sterling Brooch - "Bea "Beau" jewelry has created another striking brooch - this in the "Retro" style. "Beau" started in 1947, and produced many moderne (now called Retro) designs in sterling jewelry. Very well designed for the period. It is 1 5/8" long and 1" high.
Here is a lovely gift for the serious vintage jewelry collector - or, just an attractive, nice Holiday gift for the lady in someones life.  

"Beau" Sterling Retro Brooch This is a nice Sterling Brooch by "Beau". It is mid 20th Century. "Beau" started in 1946. A branch holds 3 curvy leaves, with a silver ball at the base. Nicely designed. Enough to make an impact, but not overdone. Very tasteful. This would be very nice as a holiday gift. We ship promptly, so you still have time.  

Sterling Violets Brooch - Handcast This nice silver brooch features violets. A spray of 3 violets & a leaf sit on an open framework. This is nice as the fabric beneath shows through. This is handcast by a very talented craftsperson. It is 2 5/8" long and 1 1/4" high. Not marked, but this tests as silver. Condition is good.  

Pretty Sterling Brooch - Denmark Here is wonderful Danish brooch. A very good example of Scandinavian jewelry craftsmanship. Linear disk leafs make a pretty spray. It is 2" long and 1 5/8" wide. Small enough for a lapel. Simple enough to be worn in business or social settings.
Definitely a Retro piece, circa mid 20th Century. Initial signed. "M S"  

Sterling Brooch - Native American Crafts Here is a beautifully designed sterling brooch. It has a very stylized bird motif. The birds head centers the piece, with the wing & tail circling the pin. The dark parts are deeply cut into the silver base. There is a small round stone as the eye, probably coral. This design is very typical of some of the 20th Century Native American crafts workers.
It is 1 3/8" diameter. It is not marked but has tested as Sterling. Not signed, a good sign for older Native American jewelry. Condition is very good.  

Sterling & Pearl Retro Brooch This nice leaf pin has 3 pearl "buds" at one side. The style and period are very "retro". Mid 20th Century. The veined leaf has a soft finish in the center with the edges very shiny. A tendril is at one edge and the 3 pearls are at the other. Nicely made.
It is 2 1/2" long. The mark is C A with a horizontal arrow through the letters. I could not find the name of the maker using this trademark. But a very pretty pin, in close to mint condition.  

This small filigree brooch has very nicely detailed filigree work. A deep blue lapis centers the floral shape brooch. A "C" clasp holds the pin in place. This is an estate item. It probably was made in the early or mid 20th Century. This type of filigree work is typical of that done in the MidEast and Mediterranean regions.  

Zuni Turquoise 16 stone Brooch This lovely old Zuni brooch is not too large, just right for a lapel - or the top of a blouse. It is set with 16 small, bright turquoise stones. It is 1 5/16" long and 7/16" high. The mounting is sterling silver - not marked, but we tested it. Typical of the older Zuni jewelry, this piece is not signed. A nice piece of Native American craftsmanship. Mid or Early 20th Century.
