Mid-century enamel jewellery is characterised by vibrant vitreous enamelling techniques, often depicting flora and fauna with textured gold detailing and expressive, stylised forms.

These pieces typically utilise high-karat yellow gold settings combined with hand-applied coloured glass enamel, often employing techniques such as guilloche or plique-a-jour.

Authenticity is generally verified through official hallmarks, such as the French eagles head indicating 18-karat gold, alongside makers stamps and consistent craftsmanship.

Vintage brooches can be worn pinned to the lapel of a tailored blazer, fastened to a silk scarf, or used to accent the collar of a minimalist blouse.

Enamel should be protected from harsh impacts, chemical exposure, and ultrasonic cleaners, and stored individually in a soft-lined jewellery box to prevent scratching.
