D & E six- point star brooch from the “Masquerade” line. These hard to come by pieces came in many colors and styles, ( of course, it’s D & E). There’s blue, yellow- green, and the very sought after red! Which a full parure will set you back over 1K! My brooch is done in black millefiori stones with ab chatons, set in rhodium. Millefiori means “a thousand flowers” in Italian. Some think these stones were hand painted, not so. They are real millefiori stones. D & E used only the best, right?
Circa—1960!
ENJOY!
Wow, that is such a cool piece!
Luv this brooch, Eileen. An excellent, wearable colour combination — greys and light AB stones. And five? sizes/types! Learned something here, too — millifiori.
Eileen,
That's gorgeous. Do you wear it often? Very striking design.
Very nice my friend!
Stunning, Eileen!
Thanks MrsT. These are pretty hard to come by, not to mention pricey.
This one did not elude me though. Thanks for always being so kind with your comments.
LeAnne, when someone who collects jewelry of your caliber “loves” on a piece of mine, it warms the heart. Thank you for finding my millefiori brooch “ excellent ”, I so appreciate the sentiment...
Thanks Maureen, I just received it last week, but as with all my jewelry, I will definitely be wearing it, ( most likely in the fall). Jewelry is made to be worn, not stored away in boxes!!
Thanks Mary, it is pretty “nice”, huh?
Thank you , Leah. So nice of you to stop by from Art Glass to “love” on my Millefiori!
And thanks for all the loves, dears!
breathtaking brooch!
This one reminds me of a serrated orb spinning towards me like in the disco song "Armed and Completely Dangerous'', mesmerizing, hypnotic,
Four, three, two one
Earth below us,
Drifting, falling,
Floating, weightless,
Calling, calling, home
Thank you Phil, ( I think, lol)
It is quite the cosmic design.
Foseatme, your kind comments are always appreciated!
