Antique Art Deco Square Paste Brooch

A refined Antique Art Deco square brooch set with luminous Old European Cut faceted foiled paste stones in a silver tone metal mount, most likely rhodium plated. Its architectural composition features four round paste stones arranged around a smaller round stone, accented by slender baguette-cut paste stones that underscore the period’s crisp geometric elegance. The brooch embodies the sophisticated restraint and modernist sensibility of early 20th-century jewelry.

Each paste stone was masterfully cut and set to maximize brilliance, offering exceptional sparkle while allowing the designer freedom to explore bold modern art deco forms. Unmarked, as typical of quality paste jewelry of the era. This versatile piece is equally suited to your collector’s cabinet or as a subtle accent on your lapel, silk scarf, or cashmere sweater. A timeless jewel that exemplifies understated elegance and the inventive artistry of Art Deco design.
