Vintage French Sapphire and Enamel Yellow Gold Dog Brooch

Sophisticated, but fun, one cannot help but smile when presented with this fine brooch. Reminiscent of designs Cartier was producing at the time, this piece bears French hallmarks and is solidly fabricated of 18k yellow gold. The braided golden strands of hair erupting from this charming pooch’s head have a wonderful hand to them and are a testament to the care that was taken to produce a piece of such fine quality. Two sapphires dot the eyes and the detail is capped off by red enamel lips and a black enamel nose. Chic? Mais, oui…
