Lovers Brooch | Far Fetched Jewelry | Vintage Jewelry | Made in USA

Each figure takes on its own coloring from the blend of metals — 925 sterling silver set against brass and copper — so the pair reads as two distinct people rather than mirror images, lit in warm and cool tones that play off each other the way the dancers do. The dimensional casting lifts them off the surface of whatever garment carries them.

This is an authentic vintage piece from the American studio's heyday, no longer in production. It makes an unusually good anniversary or Valentine's present precisely because it is not a heart: it is a picture of what love looks like from the outside. Wedding-day lapels, engagement parties, and golden anniversaries all suit it — as does an ordinary Tuesday with someone you still like skipping beside.
