Modernist Sterling Silver Organic Branch Form Brooch with Green and Honey-Orange Gemstones - This modernist brooch is crafted from sterling silver and features an organic, branch-like form with a heavily textured surface resembling tree bark. The tapered body terminates in a three-pronged fork at one end and a single point at the other. One translucent green spherical gemstone bead, measuring approximately 8mm in diameter, is suspended between two metal prongs. The opposing end of the brooch holds an oval cabochon honey-orange gemstone, measuring approximately 12mm by 10mm, secured in a four-prong setting. The silver has a dark, intentional patina throughout to accentuate the relief of the cast texture. The reverse of the brooch is stamped STERLING near the hinge and features a second, unidentified rectangular mark in the center. The piece is fitted with a horizontal pin bar and a revolving safety catch. Length: 3 inches.
