Description JAC Jorges Cohen basket brooch and earrings- sterling silver brooch with a frosted glass or rock crystal stone, a frosted rock crystal triangle, synthetic rubies and Swarovski crystals.  The brooch is a total length of 2-3/4" and it is 1-1/2" wide.  The clip back earrings are 1-1/3" by 1'.  All three pieces have his mark on the back.  Also included is a black satin pouch with his emblem on the front.  Other pieces by this maker can be seen in the Christie’s Elizabeth Taylor Auction in December 2011, HERE.  Mr Cohen was based in Amsterdam, but has since passed away.  He was born in 1941 and died in 1993.

According to Ginger Moro’s wonderful book, "European Designer Jewelry" on page 233, Cohen found 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.  View  View  View  View  View  View  View  View  View  View  View  View  View  View  View  View
