Description

View Vintage Sterling Silver Art Nouveau Lady in Hat Profile Brooch – 1.5" Diameter with current marketplace pricing, condition, product images and item details. Pin-back closure (functional, safety clasp visible). This exquisite vintage brooch is crafted in sterling silver (.925 purity, marked 925) , featuring a circular openwork frame (1.5" / 38mm diameter) with a detailed relief cameo-style profile of a young woman (maiden or belle époque figure) facing left, wearing a wide-brimmed hat adorned with feathers, curls framing her face, draped shawl/scarf, and surrounded by organic floral motifs (leaves, blossoms) evoking flowing vines. The Art Nouveau design emphasizes graceful curves, nature-inspired asymmetry, and feminine elegance—hallmarks of the 1895–1915 movement influenced by artists like Alphonse Mucha or Armand Bargas (similar reproductions often credit Bargas' iconic lady profiles). The textured, chased repoussé surface with patina in recesses adds depth and authenticity. Pin-back closure (functional, safety clasp visible). Condition: Pre-owned - Excellent.
