Flowers and blossoms have been motifs of jewelry art throughout the centuries. In the process, they adapted to the respective fashions: In the late 18th century, they were colorful and playful, then in the mid-19th century, they were set "en tremblant" and naturalistic, and then in the Art Deco period, they were chic, white and cool. The present flower brooch shows the optimistic design language of the years around 1960. The piece of jewelry is made of high-carat yellow gold and shows as a round flower of a gerbera with a multitude of petals. In the center of the combination, blue sapphires form the colorful flower base. The light plays particularly beautifully on the textured gold surfaces, which are entirely in keeping with contemporary taste. According to the hallmark, the flower was made in the workshop of Guiseppe Gatti, who was based in the northern Italian province of Alessandria. The well-preserved piece of jewelry came to us with an identical specimen with ruby trim from a high-quality private Hanseatic collection. Now the piece of jewelry is waiting to enrich an outfit with a playful focal point!
