A wonderfully crafted brooch of 18K & 24K gold with a central carved piece of coral by Miyé Matsukata who had Atelier Janiyé in Boston.

This brooch measures 2 7/8" long and 1 1/4" high. Marked Janiyé,18K and 24K on the back. The coral is held in place with four delicate prongs. Has a rollover safety clasp that holds securely. Beautiful condition, coral is a deep salmon color with glimmers of cream...

An interesting pendant- a taxidermy eye set in 14K gold. Pendant measures 1" long and 5/8" at the widest. Marked 585 for the gold and what looks like 31. Currently suspended on a gold colored intricate chain that measures 20" long and has a secure spring closure. Looks very hand made. Fun mid century modernist design.
