Boucher 1941 Raspberries Brooch
As referenced in the Brunialti book, "Tribute to America," on pages 150 and 151, this series of fruits and vegetables  were produced and patented in Marcel Boucher in 1941. Perhaps the most desirable Boucher series, this raspberry fruit pin is rare and hard to find. Marked "Des. Pat' D," this pin leaves no doubt to it's origin. I believe the MB mark is to the top of the Patent mark but the "MB" is hard to see. There are two areas of worn enamel on the leaves. View leaves closer. There is normal wear to the high points of the raspberries. View berries closer here. Pin measures 2 3/4 inches at widest. View the back. A wonderful and desirable early Boucher pin for the serious collector! Order "7FBCR-610Boucher," $565.00.

Purchased in the Eighties at Saks Fifth Avenue, this unsigned Karl Lagerfeld bracelet still has the original price tag attached and has never been worn. This marvelous glass bracelet measures 8 inches long but due to the thickness of it, needs a 7 1/3 inch or smaller wrist. View the bracelet full length. Bracelet is worn twisted and includes 12 beautiful strands of aqua, green, teal, blue and golden beads. View the bracelet on wrist. Typical KL clasp as seen on many of Lagerfeld's necklaces and bracelets. See the clasp closer. Bracelet is about 2 1/2 inches wide and heavy. View the beads closer. Original price twenty years ago was $200.00. View back of clasp. Classic and elegant! Order "4BCR-650lager," $198.00.

Most extraordinary vitrial glass heart bracelet by Warner is large, heavy and colorful.  View closer. What a rainbow array range of beautiful colors!

Bracelet measures 7 inches long by about 1 and 1/4 inches wide. Quality piece, signed by "WARNER," probably dates to the 1950's. From a wonderful North Carolina estate, we've never seen another bracelet like it! Order "V4-302Warner," SOLD

1945 Coro Sterling Craft "Siren" Fur Clip
Designed and patented by Adolph Katz for Coro in 1945, this beautifully designed fur clip
was aptly named, the "Siren." Created in both light and dark color combinations, this one is the platinum blonde with the icy pale eyes. The Siren measures 13/4 inches long and is heavy since she is quality made of sterling. There is some wear to her lipstick and the eyebrows. The stones are all present and original and do show some aging under a loupe. All in all, this wonderful 59 year old lady is in very good condition. Signed "Coro Craft Sterling" with the Pegasus.
