Modernist Silver-Tone "Orbit" Green Jade-Style Brooch — 5.0g

£38.00

A striking and sophisticated example of Mid-Century Modern design. This brooch features a deep forest-green cabochon "orbiting" within a sculptural, high-shine silver-tone frame. The clean, sweeping lines of the metalwork create a sense of movement and contemporary elegance. At 5.0 grams, it is a lightweight yet impactful accessory, ideal for minimalist styling on a lapel, collar, or a simple knit sweater.

Design Opinion

The "Swirl" or "Orbit" motif was a hallmark of 1960s modernist jewelry, focusing on geometric harmony. The stone has the rich, opaque luster of Nephrite Jade, providing a cool, organic contrast to the polished industrial feel of the silver-tone frame. It’s a perfect piece for collectors who prefer bold, "clean" aesthetics over traditional floral patterns.
