The brooch presents itself in a unique, transverse rectangular shape with gently rounded corners, reminiscent of the harmonious lines of Art Nouveau. In its centre rests a transverse oval carnelian cabochon, lovingly held in a rising bezel setting that skilfully accentuates its beauty.
The precious gemstone is framed by an enamelled white inlay that reveals the craftsmanship and attention to detail. A true masterpiece that gracefully represents the traditional craftsmanship of the gold city of Pforzheim.
The back of this brooch is equally thoughtfully designed and features a simple brooch that allows you to wear this work of art proudly and present it in an elegant way.
The brooch is branded to indicate its provenance and creative origin: The design comes from none other than Karl Hermann, an outstanding artist of his time. This masterpiece was made in the prestigious Hermann & Speck jewellery factory, which played a major role in shaping Pforzheim's reputation as a jewellery supplier to countries near and far.
Each brooch of this kind is unique, lovingly handcrafted by skilled hands. This makes this piece of jewellery a precious witness of times past and a timeless companion for the present.
Bring the spirit of Art Nouveau to life and wear this exceptional piece of jewellery with pride and grace.
