Trifari Snowflake Pearl Set Brooch & Ear Clips - American Vintage Jewelry

Living in subtropical Taiwan, we rarely have the chance to personally observe the shape of a snowflake. The owner fondly remembers her immense excitement during her first winter in the United States! Encountering the first snowfall and catching the first snowflake—its beautiful, delicate form was exactly as imagined, dreamt of, and depicted in paintings. The feeling of wonder remains deeply etched in her memory to this day. This set of snowflake jewelry nearly recreates that initial stunning beauty! Snowflakes descend from the sky, passing through atmospheric layers of varying temperatures and humidity, resulting in immensely complex and varied shapes, yet always based on a central hexagonal symmetrical structure. At the core of both the brooch and earrings is a distinct hexagonal star, radiating outwards in six directions. The lines are sharp and angular, and from a jewelry craftsmanship standpoint, each crystal is a detail of exquisite fineness. The scattered faux pearls, like a dusting of snow, enhance the dimensionality and dreamlike allure.🎄❄️🤍 ・ ・ 〖 Trifari 〗 Established in 1910, Trifari became one of America's largest and most renowned jewelry design houses within the following decades. Not only did they frequently conceptualize designs for Broadway musicals and film stars, but in the 1950s, they were commissioned to create jewelry for Mamie Eisenhower, the First Lady of the 34th U.S. President. They hired Alfred Philippe, who had previously worked for Van Cleef & Arpels and Cartier, as their chief designer, bringing a sophisticated and luxurious aesthetic. Trifari pieces are abundant and their craftsmanship is of exceptional quality, thus being recognized in the antique market as a brand of stable collectible value. ・ Origin: USA Year: 1960s Material: Gold-plated alloy, faux pearls Dimensions: ・Brooch: 5.5x5.5 cm ・Ear clips: 2.8x2.8 cm Condition: Brooch in excellent condition.
