A sculptural handmade sterling silver calla lily brooch with graceful folded petals, dimensional leaves, and a dramatic Modernist botanical form.
This large sterling silver brooch is beautifully constructed, with a raised calla lily blossom framed by sweeping handmade leaves. The design has strong movement and depth, giving the piece the feel of wearable silver sculpture. Heavy patina in recessed areas enhances the hand formed details and adds contrast to the polished highlights.
The brooch is signed PA Reg and marked Sterling. The maker has not been identified, but the quality of the design and construction is excellent. The pin mechanism is fully functional.
