Ruby Bead & Rondelle Pinwheel Brooch
1920s Jewelry, Unsigned Jewelry, Vintage Brooches & PinsThis pinwheel brooch has ruby-glass beads wired in a spiral and adorned with channels of diamantés. A large ruby-glass bead sits on top. Frank Hess designed a nearly identical dress clip for Miriam Haskell circa 1940, but his had diamantés only on the front. This brooch has them on both sides. The trombone clasp tells me this piece was made in Europe. The beads and filigree back make me think it's from France. Real or faux diamond ear studs are the perfect accompaniment for this charming and unusual jewel.USD$295.00USD$295.00Ruby Bead Necklace
