Exquisite! SEIDMAN Mid-Century Sterling Prancing Horses Brooch SIGNED!

Jewelry : Vintage : Pins/Brooches : Sterling Silver : Signed

 

This is a fabulous brooch with fine details depicting 4 horses prancing in unison. There is a lot of dimensionality to this piece. Not only are the horses 4 separate pieces, but also the brooch is slightly curved outwards, so the horses at the center appear closer.

The beautiful piece is 1.7 inches long and 0.6 inches high, and in excellent condition. I polished a bit so you could see the exquisite detail, but there is a lot of patina left, if you prefer the vintage look. The pin and locking mechanism are in excellent condition, as this brooch has been cared for very well.

The back is hallmarked with the word STERLING and an additional S. I've spent a fair amount of time researching this hallmark, and it appears to be the mark for SEIDMAN, who operated in New York City in the mid-1900's. I was not able to find any information on this company, but the hallmark was listed on the Silver Hallmarks Online Encyclopedia, under American and S.

A gorgeous piece for wear or just for show. A perfect gift for the horse lover.
