FAQs

Guilloche enamel involves engraving precise geometric patterns into metal prior to applying translucent layers of enamel. During the Art Deco period of the 1920s and 1930s, jewellers combined this technique with stylised nature motifs, creating iridescent visual effects on silver and gold.

Art Deco enamel brooches predominantly utilise sterling silver or silver-gilt as the base metal, finished with vitreous glass enamel. Standard pin fittings and rollover safety clasps were commonly integrated into the reverse side.

Authentic pieces by Thomas Lyster Mott usually feature makers marks such as TLM, alongside British silver hallmarks or STERLING SILVER stamps. Mott specialised in silver guilloche enamel insect brooches and tropical butterfly wing jewellery during the early 20th century.

Antique brooches can be pinned to blazer lapels, coat collars, silk scarves, or velvet ribbons. They are also frequently styled on fabric handbags or worn in groupings on denim and tailored knitwear.

Vitreous enamel should be kept away from harsh chemicals, ultrasonic cleaners, and moisture. Clean gently with a soft dry silver cloth, ensuring no pressure is applied to the enamelled surface to prevent cracking or chipping.
