PROVENANCE & COLLECTOR NOTE
The bow is one of the most enduring and beloved motifs in jewelry history, and for good reason: it is simultaneously feminine, festive, and timeless. In the warm golden tones of yellow and topaz, these mid-century bow brooches are particularly radiant — they carry the warmth of autumn light and the cheerfulness of a beautifully wrapped gift. Topaz-colored rhinestones were enormously popular in the mid-20th century, prized for their warm, amber-like glow that flatters virtually every skin tone and complements a wide range of wardrobe colors. This collection is a celebration of that golden warmth.

GRACE NOTE
A bow brooch is one of those rare pieces of jewelry that works on absolutely everyone and for absolutely every occasion. Pin a golden bow to a navy blazer for a classic, preppy look. Wear a topaz bow on a cream blouse for a warm, autumnal elegance. Pin the largest one to a holiday sweater and become the most festive person in the room. These pieces are generous with their warmth and their beauty, and they ask very little in return — just a lapel, a collar, or a cardigan pocket to call home.
