Here is a fabulous vintage silver and pearl brooch by the Japanese Company Mikimoto, the most celebrated of Pearl jewellers. Mikimoto actually invented the technique for culturing pearls in the late 19th/Early 20th Century and the company still produce Cultured Pearl Jewllery of the highest quality today. I would estimate that this brooch dates from the 1960's and it is a classic piece. There are eight individual Mikimoto Cultured Pearls used to great effect on a simple swirled silver background. The pearls are arranged to make a kind of abstract flower. There are 2 large pearls of approx 6 mm in diameter and 1 smaller pearls of about 4 mm in diameter. This pin is a signed piece, it has their 'M in a clam shell' mark along with an 'S' for Sterling Silver, clear to see on the reverse. The brooch fastens with a secure roll-over type clasp. This vintage pearl brooch measures approx 2 inches by a little over an inch and is in excellent condition.
This beautiful piece is in excellent used vintage condition. Some patina applied. Condition is fabulous. Ready to wear!! Gorgeous!! This beautifully detailed piece is a great addition to your collection.
