WEST Vintage Modernist Gold-Tone Brooch — 1960s

Signed on the back and part of old stock — this WEST brooch has never been worn, which for a piece from the 1960s is genuinely rare. The American brand, founded in the 1930s and active until 1989, was known for exactly this kind of sculptural, art-inspired design: abstract branches in textured gold-tone metal, lifted by multicoloured leaf and petal accents.

Bold mid-century modernism, in perfect original condition. There is only one.
