A very rare Opaque White Stone brooch has 3 of the Glass Leaves that Sherman was using. This size was Sherman`s largest using the glass leaves and few of this size has been seen so far. It is his company`s own design, and I am sure it is the most beautiful and somewhat fragile, real glass leaves used by any of the costume jewellers. The use of a 4 leaf clover by Van Cleef and Arpels an early as 1955 apparently was "first" but other manufacturers may have used theirs around then. Theirs was a rather insignificant representation of a 4 leaf clover and NOT glass. This particular leaf was specially designed by Sherman and quite different than other makers. From 2008 to now this is a rather late entry !
Love it...the iridescent leaves amongst the opaque stones is just beautiful...great find!!!
Magnificent opaque white Sherman brooch, a very special design and the iridescent leaves give it extra flair
Super gorgeous! I especially like the leaves with their stunning iridescent color. Even the gold tone finish is beautiful! Great to own the set!
