Lot 57:
A pretty vintage 14K yellow gold pin by Krementz featuring a spray of beautifully enameled bleeding hearts, each dangling a small seed pearl. The enameling on the blossoms has a matte effect that mimics the waxing texture of the flower in nature, while the leaves are in Krementz’s more typical shaded translucent style. In Victorian flower language, bleeding hearts were used to represent "deepest love." Pins such as this with a delicate enameled flower against a geometric back represent are typical of Krementz’s move Art Nouveau into Art Deco and finally Retro. The original clasp is stamped with Krementz’ hallmark. Origin: America, ca. 1930 Condition: excellent; no enamel damage Dimensions: 1-3/16" diameter Weight: 7.0 grams
