Heavy brass and enamel collar necklace in the manner of Albert Gustav Bunge (1893 - 1967)
This is a very unusual and striking necklace comprising two pieces that make up as a collar with three heavy brass drops. Each drop has very unusual enamel work that is quite thick and has a piece of agate in the centre. The style is very similar to the designs of Albert Gustav Bunge (1893 - 1967). He was a German metalworker and enamel artist best known for his elegantly crafted bracelets, plates, cups, book ends, and other household objects. Bunge combined utilitarian properties of design with decorative depictions of colourful, geometric shapes and stylized animals. The piece is unmarked and therefore a firm attribution is not possible but the parallels are striking nevertheless.Size: | Necklace is 39 cm circumference, the centre drop measures 9 cm long |
Weight: | 118 grams |
Date: | 1930s |
Condition: | Very good condition, some rubbing to the brass that is clearly shown in the images. Enamel is in excellent condition. |
