FANY & CO. ARTS & CRAFTS MONTANA SAPPHIRE, DIAMOND, AND GOLD BROOCH New York, Circa 1910
Design attributed to Louis Comfort Tiffany. Circular with a central mine-cut sapphire, approximately 12 mm x 11.40 mm x 5 mm, surrounded by eleven small diamonds incorporated into a foliate motif with woodbine leaves and faux-bois border. Signed "Tiffany & Co.". Diameter 1.25".
Condition: No damages or repairs. Sapphire with light, minor, age-typical surface wear. The sapphire has been examined by a gemologist. No lab tests have been performed. Louis Comfort Tiffany frequently incorporated sapphires from Montana into his designs, as part of his wider use of gems indigenous to the US. In our opinion the stone is from Montana, but it is not guaranteed and the origin has not been certified. The color is a pale blue.
