This printer block is one of our prized possessions. It reads, “Hibiscus Blossoms” “Floral beauty captures forever in a pin and matching earclips by Napier. This loveliness will always be in season. Gold plated sterling silver.” “Pin $12.50, Earclips $18.00”
In addition to the translucent enamels Napier produced in the late 1960s, the company created a series of plique-à-jour designs. We don’t see many of these on the secondary market. Perhaps because of the delicate nature of the construction and design. This lovely bracelet has a stained window effect. The green enamel creates a floral design, while the center red enamel ties the inner structure with the shape of the individual plaques of pierced metalwork. #napierjewelryhistory #napierjewelry #thenapierbook #thejewelrystylist
