Description

This 925 sterling silver "Sleeping Beauty" Brooch came into a collection in the early 1990s, where we found it. The figure seems to have a "Hamsa Hand" protecting her while she sleeps. Maker's mark is visible.

The brooch is in a style that puts it as part of a resurgence of sterling silver and marcasite brooches from the 1950s. This resurgence included figures of: women walking dogs, Spanish dancers, faeries, ballerinas, women in hats, woman at vanity mirrors, and people on old-time bicycles. Many are also animals, ribbons and women's accessories like cat-eye glasses or purses. This design, of a Sleeping Beauty or Dream Girl, appears to be uncommon. We haven't found another like it.*

*We will update as we find more.
