Signed Hobe' Twisted Ribbon & Rhinestones Brooch

Jewelry : Vintage : Pin/Brooch : Hobe'

 

This is a unique gold tone brooch by Hobe'. It is a gold tone striated ribbon that has a twist in the middle. This creates a large 3-D rise in the center. Draped over this is a panel of crystal prong set chatons created using very fine rhinestone chains. These arch up and over. At the point where the crystal chatons meet the ribbon, the illusion is that the crystal rhinestone ribbon flips over and exposes the underside which is made with AB chatons. So the clear rhinestone ribbon twists over and reveals the soft coloring underneath. And tucked between the AB chatons and the gold tone base, on each side, are 6 crystal marquis peeking out. Again, the illusion of another ribbon. Picture this on a present! It measures 2 1/2" across and is 1" high off the table. Signed Hobe' on a plaque on the back. Excellent condition!
