JAC JORGE COHEN Deco 835 silver brooch with crystal, onyx, crysophase, clear rhinestones and marcasites, Amsterdam circa 1980s

Price: $198.00
Description JAC JORGE COHEN 835 silver brooch with crystal, onyx, crysophase and marcasites, circa 1980s.  This is Deco inspired brooch was made between 1982 and 1993 in Amsterdam, the Netherlands.  His small company often worked in 835 sterling silver, and we have had other pieces of his jewelry.  Other pieces by this Dutch maker can be seen in the Christie’s Elizabeth Taylor Auction in December 2011, but the link I had to that is now broken.

Mr Cohen was born in 1941, based in Amsterdam, but has since passed away in 1993.  According to Ginger Moro’s wonderful book, "European Designer Jewelry" on page 233, Cohen found marvelous vintage molded glass elements in Paris and combined them with modern silver, onyx, marcasites, and chrysoprase to fashion his Deco inspired jewelry.  According to Cohen, he was also inspired by the Amsterdam School designs from earlier in the 20th Century.
