Art Nouveau 15ct Gold Tie Pin Portrait of a Lady wearing a Diamond feed-condition-used It was made in BirminghamThe Art Nouveau flourished from the last two decades of the 19th century until the 1920s. The style rebelled against the formalities of historic design and geometric shapes. Instead, the Art Nouveau embraced nature, sensuous curves and exciting new techniques and materials. This rare and lovely pin has all the charm and light of the period. It is beautifully modelled as a head of a woman in 15ct gold, and has a sparkling diamond at the top of her hat.
