Art Nouveau Antique c1900 Krementz 14K Enameled Gold & Pearl Pin Brooch
Regular price
$432.00
Presented is a vintage, 14 karat yellow gold, pearl and enamel pin made by Krementz of Newark, NJ between 1890 and 1905. The pin is done in a matte finish and has a sinuous, openwork form. The bottom portion is enameled in shaded, translucent green. The pin is also post set with 2 natural pearls.
The clasp is stamped with Krementz’s hallmark and 14K.
This piece is in great overall condition for its age. There is a bit of loss to the enamel on the right side of the pin in the darker part but because the enamel is not completely worn through to the gold, it appears as if the enamel is just shaded lighter in that spot. There are no other flaws and there are no repairs. The pin measures 7/8 of an inch wide and weighs 2.4 grams.
