The Prima Ballerina
ERA: A Quiet Rehearsal in a Sunlit Studio
STYLE NOTES: Graceful Lines, Sculptural Form, Minimalist Gold, A Single Sparkle
PAIRS WELL WITH: The lapel of a cashmere coat, the collar of a crisp white shirt, or a simple black dress. This is a piece of wearable poetry, a single, perfect line drawn in gold.
The Character Arc
Sometimes, the most powerful statements are made with the fewest words. This exquisite, unsigned vintage brooch is a masterclass in that very philosophy.
A single, graceful, sweeping line of polished gold-tone metal is masterfully sculpted into the iconic silhouette of a swan, its neck elegantly curved. The design is pure, minimalist, and breathtakingly modern. A single, brilliant-cut crystal rhinestone forms the eye, a tiny, unexpected flash of light that brings the entire piece to life.
This is the ultimate accessory for the woman who appreciates the power of understatement. It doesn't need a riot of color or a cacophony of gems to be noticed. It is the perfect, intelligent accent for your trench coat, your favorite sweater, your power suit. It is a quiet, confident, and endlessly elegant piece of wearable sculpture.

This is a beautifully preserved piece. The gold-tone plating is bright, shiny, and the back and clasp are in excellent, near-mint condition. The rhinestone eye is clear and sparkly.
Of note: The smooth, polished front surface shows some minor, fine hairline scratches consistent with its age and normal wear, which are visible upon close inspection in the light. This does not detract from its overall stunning and elegant appearance.
