GS George Steere 1906-1911 Providence, RI Source "Keystone 1914", page 66 states "out of business. | GNS George Steere 1906-1911 Providence, RI Not all pieces by this maker are marked, but they are all substantially made and of heavier metal. | GNS & Co George Steere 1906-1911 Providence, RI |
GNS George STEERE Phoenix motif hidden locket brooch with fittings for one photo. The topaz colored faceted rhinestone shows from behind the swirl of the bird’s wings, circa 1910, 3" by 2-5/8". The locket is under the front motif and opens on a hinge. Steere made jewelry in Rhode Island from about 1906-1911, and his pieces have a mythical feel in their motifs. This is the first locket brooch I have seen from this maker so I assume they are fairly rare.
