$235.00
Behold the incredible combination of hot pink and smokey grey crystals laced with dazzling clear rhinestone chatons!
It is no secret among vintage jewelry collectors that Delizza and Elster was perhaps the most dominating force in superb quality designer jewelry ever in the US. Their design department and their preferred status with stone exporters in Europe was a huge part of their success.
This brooch exemplifies the Creme de le Creme of Juliana jewelry. This impressive design is one that is rarely found today, and the long slender crystal navette brooches are the most highly collectible.
This is one of D&E's earliest colored designs. Not only is this brooch large, but all of the crystals are large as well. This daring combination of hot pink and smokey grey crystals and rhinestones is set in Japanned metal.
This leaf design is mostly large navette crystals, fanned out in an elongated shape with two big hot pink faceted chatons perched at top center. Look at the back of the brooch and you can see the open work settings and the typical D&E quality construction.
Large in size, the brooch is 2 3/4" long x 1 1/2" wide or 70 mm x 38 mm. The navettes are about 13-14 mm long. The entire brooch is in superb pristine clean well cared for condition. It is very important to note that the black enamel is in like new in high gloss condition with no wear. All of the crystals and rhinestones are original, present, and in superb sparkling condition with no facet wear. All stones are prong set. The back of the brooch has the original fine working safety clasp, and the brooch is not signed.
Comes gift wrapped and shipped in a new presentation jewelry box.
