This Art Deco brooch dates from the 1920 period and takes the form of a standing solid silver pheasant with polychrome enamel detailing. The piece features a long feathery tail, detailed textured claws, and a distinct crest upon its head, alongside a mix of red, blue, green, and gold tones across the body. The design relies on vibrant hues and naturalistic feathered textures to capture the bird in profile. Measuring 2.3 cm high by 5.8 cm wide and 0.5 cm deep, this diminutive accessory is suited to personal wear on lapels, scarves, or hats. Under magnification, the piece shows minor edge wear to the enamel and feet, alongside tarnish on the reverse side. The item functions as a decorative garment fastening with a traditional pin mechanism on the back, bringing a touch of vintage figurative jewellery to modern outfits.

FAQs

Art Deco animal brooches produced during the 1920s and 1930s combined figurative natural motifs with stylized forms and vibrant vitreous enamelling. Birds and game motifs were frequently rendered in silver or gold, capturing natural postures using colourful enamel applications over engine-turned or cast metallic bases.

These brooches were typically cast or stamped in sterling silver or high-grade silver alloys before receiving vitreous glass enamel. Techniques such as guilloche involved engraving geometric underlying textures, allowing light to reflect through translucent enamel layers fired at high temperatures in a kiln.

Authentic pieces generally feature contemporary makers marks or silver purity hallmarks, such as 925, STERLING, or regional assay stamps. Examine the reverse for period-appropriate pin mechanisms, such as c-clasps or safety locks, and inspect the enamel for hand-applied polychrome detailing.

In addition to being worn on coat lapels, scarves, or knitwear, small enamelled brooches can be displayed mounted inside velvet-lined shadow boxes or arranged on decorative ring trays as part of a dressing table vignette.

Clean gently using a soft, dry microfibre cloth to remove dust and fingerprints. Avoid submerging in liquid chemical cleaners or ultrasonic baths, as harsh chemicals can degrade the enamel glaze or dissolve adhesives holding pin components.
