Vintage 40s HOBE Sterling Spray Bouquet Pin

$266.00

This HOBE Sterling bouquet pin is in amazing condition.  The construction screams HOBE from the curled tips of the leaves, and bezel set colored jewel like rhinestones, be-ribboning of the spray and the petals of each bud.  Only the stems are not gold washed.

 

“Jewels of Legendary Splendor”

William Hobé was the son of a master goldsmith, and it’s fair to say like father, like son. Becoming a master jeweler himself, William opened his own company “Hobé Cie” in New York to produce costume jewelry of exquisite quality known not only by retail businesses serving public fashion – to Hollywood theater and movie production.

His creations made of Sterling, were primarily produced during the 1930s through the 1950s and are highly collectible.

There is some tarnish, but I will leave that for the new owner because some like it bright, some like the patina of age.  It measures 3 ¾” x 2”; it is marked only that it is 1/20 14 Kt, but as collector friends of mine says, “It is what it is!” (Hobe); mildly tarnished from storage and is in excellent vintage condition.

Weighs:  34.6 grams

It comes from the collection of a long-time vintage costume jewelry enthusiast.  Will look equally wonderful on man or woman and meet the standards of the most discerning collector.
