French Art Nouveau Muse Relief Brooch in 18ct Gold, Spectrum Antiques
French Art Nouveau Muse Relief Brooch in 18ct Gold, Spectrum Antiques
£2,650.00
Description
An exquisite example of French Art Nouveau artistry, c.1900. This 18ct yellow gold brooch features a high-relief "repoussé" depiction of a classical muse with a lyre, rendered with the soft, flowing lines characteristic of the Belle Époque.
The gold possesses a beautiful "bloomed" matte finish, accented by delicate diamond highlights along the muse’s neckline. The level of detail—from the intricate tresses of her hair to the curvature of the lyre—is exceptional. With a substantial weight of over 12g, this piece is a testament to the superior craftsmanship of Parisian jewellery houses at the turn of the century. It bears French 18ct gold hallmarks and retains its original pin and safety clasp.
