Henry Perichon French Couture Brooch Tiered Gilt Brass Poured Glass MCM c. 1955
The ‘poured’ nature of the glass gives it a soft, glowing translucency reminiscent of ancient jewels. A magnificent and rare survivor of Mid-Century French couture, this signed Henry Périchon (marked ‘Henry’) brooch is a masterclass in the Renaissance Revival aesthetic during the Line Vautrin Era.
