This big beautiful brooch is a scarce vintage piece by designer Gray Kingsburg. Working in New York from the 1920s through the 1940s, his pieces are know for their bold design and meticulous metalwork, especially his use of delicate filigree details. Kingsburg adorned his works with art glass gems and beads. Many of his designs incorporate Asian or Oriental elements, such as as the finely carved cinnabar beads bedecking this brooch.
The precious pin carries Kingsburg's plaque on the back. This unusual hand-crafted creation would be the perfect gift for a collector of costume jewelry or for an enthusiast of vintage couture.
