This is a fascinating c. 1960s Napier brooch pin with an unusual design. The pierced metalwork with the enameled background gives it an almost “stained glass” effect. It is marked “Napier” on the back and measures 1 7/8″ in diameter. #napierjewelry #napierhistory #thenapierbook #jewelryhistory

The brooches shown here exemplify the variations Napier often created around a central design element. The first piece features a circular disk and glass-stone inset with an Asian-inspired metal disk. A variation of this piece featured the addition of a pierced metalwork plaque suspending dangles. A complementing charm bracelet was also part of this collection. After 22 years of studying Napier jewelry, we have not seen matching earrings or a necklace, which speaks to the rarity of specific pieces. #napierjewelry #napierhistory #napierbrooch #thenapierbook
