Tonight I'm happy to offer, from a recently purchased estate, Sherman, Vintage, Late 1950's - Clear Color - Marquise, Baguette and Round Shaped Crystals - Figural Wisteria Floral Cluster Motif Brooch and Earring Set. .

BOOK PIECE! - EXTREMELY RARE DESIGN! - EXCELLENT CONDITION! - NO RESERVE!

This handsome and very impressive set dates from the late 1950's, made by the well known Canadian firm of "Sherman" designed as a large sized 2" by 4" tiered and intertwined floral cluster detailed with three hanging pendents - much like wisteria blossoms and layered and stacked for a 3-D effect. The set is done in a series of dazzling clear color round, baguette and marquise shaped crystals set in a rhodium plated setting. The brooch comes with a pair of 1" marquise crystal pendant cluster earrings that are an exact match to the central details in the brooch.

This brooch, in this color and a color variation, can be seen on page 208 of the new Yallen and Caldwell Sherman book - "Sherman Jewellery - The Masterpiece Collection".

The set is in excellent condition showing very little use or wear, all the original stones, none missing or replaced with no loss to the finish or plating on the back of the brooch or earrings - The earrings where originally clip-on but have been converted for pierced by a previous owner.

The brooch is marked, Sherman on a small silver square. The earrings are not marked but are an exact match to the central details in the brooch and probably lost their when they were converted.

SHERMAN

Sherman was a Canadian costume jewelry company that produced very high-quality pieces. Colorful or clear prong-set rhinestones or cut crystal beads (sometimes with an aurora borealis finish) adorn most Sherman pieces; the metal is rhodium-plated or gold-plated. "Jewels of Elegance" by Sherman was written on some carded Sherman jewelry. Sherman produced jewelry from 1947-1981.

As I usually do I'm offering this item at a LOW opening with NO RESERVE.
