Henning Koppel for Georg Jensen Modernist sterling pin. Circa third quarter of the 20th century. No issues, weight and measurements in pics. GEORG JENSEN (1866 - 1935) When the 37-year-old Georg Jensen, with both an apprenticeship as goldsmith and sculptor behind him, made silver his way of living by establishing his silver smithy in Copenhagen in 1904, it was with the fine craftsmans understanding and appreciation of the material combined with the accomplished artists sense of form. Through his childhood in the picturesque surroundings of Raadvad north of Copenhagen Georg Jensen was inspired to become an artist. He succeeded in becoming both sculptor and ceramist but it was by way of his talent as a silver smith that he achieved the most remarkable recognition. The Georg Jensen Silversmithy created some of the most original and epoch-defining jewellery, hollowware and cutlery patterns. At Georg Jensens death in 1935 the smithy was acknowledged as one of the most important silversmithies in the world. Georg Jensen was instrumental in defining the character of the twentieth century Scandinavian Design by drawing on Danish traditions and infusing them with a progressive design rationale. He rejected the popular taste of the time for romantic and historicist ornamentation and ostentation, instead embracing the avant-garde Art Nouveau style with its simple organic forms and craft-based approach to production. Georg Jensen was a sensitive artist endowed with a great talent which made it possible for him to turn his vision into reality.

c1930‘s William Spratling tin milk pitcher/creamer. No holes or breaks, a few small dents shown. 4 7/8" tall to top of handle, 5 3/8" wide handle to spout. LRshelf William Spratling was born in 1900 in Sonyea, New York. His father was well respected and widely known for his study and writings concerning epilepsy. After the death of both Spratling‘s mother and sister, Wilhelmina, in 1910, Spratling‘s father moved temporarily to his father‘s Alabama home (known as Roamer‘s Roost) with sons William and David as well as older daughter, Lucile. At that time, the three Spratling children became wards of their grandfather. By the end of 1912, the family had moved once more and the children were separated; each went to live with with various aunts and uncles. In 1917 William Spratling attended Auburn University and a year or two later, during his stay at Auburn served as an instructor in architecture. Spratling moved to New Orleans in 1921 where he was an Associate Professor of Architecture at Tulane University. During the following nine years, Spratling published articles in Scribners Magazine, Journal of the A.I.A., Architecture Record, and many other architecture and travel publications. He became an active part of the New Orleans literary colony during those years, and his frequent companions were Natalie Scott, Sherwood Anderson, Oliver La Farge, Frans Blom, John Dos Passos and William Faulkner. Faulkner lived with Spratling for a time, and together they wrote and published Sherwood Anderson and Other Famous Creoles in 1926. 1926 was also when Spratling visited Mexico for the first time. He returned for summers over the next several years, and in 1929, moved to Mexico. Spratling quickly was introduced to and became a welcome participant in the artistic circles of Mexico. His activities in promoting the art of Diego Rivera among New York galleries led to his participation in the first exhibition of Mexican arts held in the United States. The exhibit was funded by the Carnegie Institute and opened at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. Spratling assisted in assembling the exhibit and also lent a number of his own pieces. During this same period, Spratling was working on drawings for the expanding Morrow home in Cuernavaca. Many of these drawings were included in the book written by Elizabeth Morrow, Casa Mañana. Dwight Morrow, the US Ambassador to Mexico, suggested to Spratling in 1931 that Taxco had been the site of silver mines for centuries, but Taxco had never been considered a location where jewelry and objects of silver were designed and made. Subsequently, Spratling hired an experienced goldsmith from Iguala who moved to Taxco and created silver jewelry of Spratlings design. Other craftsmen joined Spratling‘s shop and produced tin ware, copper items, textiles and furniture - all designed by Spratling. These earliest designs were based on pre-Columbian motifs as well as simple themes utilizing rope borders, strap designs and other such basic ideas. The enterprise grew far beyond Spratlings expectations! Because he had created an apprentice system of training young silversmiths many new talented artisans had an opportunity to develop their craft. Over time many of these artisans opened shops of their own all with Spratlings support. During the Second World War, U.S. department stores were unable to import merchandise from Europe, and many retail stores purchased luxury goods in Mexico. In order to meet this dramatic increase in demand, Spratling opened his company to private investors, and by the end of 1944 had lost control of his company. Early in 1946, Spratling y Artesanos was out of business. By this time, Spratling had moved to a ranch he had earlier purchased south of Taxco at Taxco-el-Viejo. He never again lived within the town of Taxco. In 1946, he was asked by the U.S. Department of the Interior to develop a plan for development of native crafts in Alaska, and in 1949, a group of 7 young men from Alaska arrived at Spratling‘s ranch at Taxco-el-Viejo and began their training. Spratling had designed and produced 200 models for that effort, but after the men completed their training and returned to Alaska, the program languished primarily due to lack of government funding. The actual benefits of the program (both for Alaskans and for Spratling) were never realized. The time, however, that Spratling spent studying Alaskan native cultures and visiting all parts of Alaska created great impact as seen in Spratling‘s later silver designs. His design ethic in 1949 was dramatically different from those designs of the 1930s until mid 1940. He also used new materials in combination with silver for many of these later designs. Spratling continued to rebuild his business and had silversmiths fabricating his jewelry and object designs at his ranch. His designs were also produced by the Conquistador Company in Mexico City for a couple of years. Spratling published More Human Than Divine in 1960 and his archaeological interests not only continued but by the early 1960s seemed to take precedence over the creation of new silver designs. He donated collections of his pre-Columbian materials to the National University of Mexico and the National Museum of Anthropology in Mexico City. Spratling has been called by many "a Renaissance Man." Throughout Mexico he is acknowledged as "The Father of Mexican Silver." Certainly the town of Taxco and its economy would be vastly different without the initiative and creativity of this man. He complemented its valuable historic past with a new vitality and spirit which recognized the importance of the indigenous culture. The artistic and economic foundation he established continues to flourish today.

William Spratling sterling fur clip 14 grams, other measurements in pics.Spratling, an architect and artist who taught at Tulane University in New<br>Orleans, came to Mexico in the late 1920s and settled in the city of Taxco.<br>Having developed an interest in Mesoamerican archaeology and culture from his<br>colleagues at Tulane, he traveled to Mexico for several summers lecturing and<br>exploring. He sought out remote villages in the state of Guerrero, 110 miles<br>from Mexico City, where in some places Nahuatl, the Aztec language, was spoken.<br>Spratling collected artifacts and contemporary indigenous crafts. Spratling made<br>a fortune manufacturing and designing silver, but his true life's work was to<br>conserve, redeem, and interpret the ancient culture of his adopted country. He<br>explained for North American audiences the paintings of Mexico's modern masters<br>and earned distinction as a learned and early collector of pre-Columbian art.<br>Spratling and his workshop gradually became a visible and culturally attractive<br>link between a steady stream of notable American visitors and the country they<br>wanted to see and experience. Spratling had the rare good fortune to witness his<br>own reputation -- as one of the most admired Americans in Mexico -- assume<br>legendary status before his death. William Spratling, His Life and Art vividly<br>reconstructs this richly diverse life whose unique aesthetic legacy is but a<br>part of its larger cultural achievement of profoundly influencing Americans'<br>attitudes toward a civilization different from their own.

1940 年 Hobe Sterling 现代主义花朵胸针 1 13/16 英寸宽，无损坏 13.9 克。 Hobé Cie 由金匠雅克·霍贝 (Jacques Hobé) 于 1887 年创立，但当人造珠宝收藏家想到 Hobé 时，他们首先想到的是雅克 (Jacques) 的儿子威廉 (William) 制作的流苏串珠项链，威廉 (William) 于 1927 年在美国建立了该公司的分公司。两次世界大战之间美国人造珠宝热潮刚开始时。 事实上，一些学者认为霍贝实际上参与了“人造珠宝”一词本身。小霍贝抵达纽约后，在他创办公司之前，他的第一个任务就是为“齐格菲歌舞团”制作服装和珠宝。据一些历史学家称，弗洛伦茨·齐格菲尔德 (Florenz Ziegfeld) 将霍贝服装上的珠宝描述为人造珠宝。霍贝的演艺出身对公司很有帮助。到了 20 世纪 40 年代和 50 年代，贝蒂·戴维斯 (Bette Davis) 和艾娃·加德纳 (Ava Gardner) 等好莱坞明星都穿着 Hobé。如今特别珍贵的是那个时代的花卉别针，其特点是紧密的朱红色花瓣簇。早期的 Hobé 作品仍然受到收藏家的欢迎，其中包括金丝手镯和别针，其中一些以维多利亚风格的肖像或日本根付式的人物为焦点。

RH Modernist Sterling belt buckle. Solid sterling with gilt rim.. No issues. Alvin is a highly regarded Navajo silversmith who has perfected the art of ‘sand casting’ to produce exquisite pieces of work. He was born in Winslow Arizona but spent much of his younger life in Seba Dalkai area on the Navajo Reservation north of Winslow. Alvin’s talent is a family tradition, he learned sand casting from his sister. Alvin describes his work method as ‘unassisted hand poured cast silver,’ a process that involves using a sand medium for mold into which the silver is poured. He ‘carves’ designs into the sand or creates impressions in the sand with patterns. Marked or unmarked as shown in pics, weight and other measurements in pics.

Retro C.A. Johnson Southwestern modernist sterling and onyx earrings. No issues.All precious metals are tested and guaranteed. A Native American jewelry piece referred to as "silver" or "ingot" is guaranteed to be at least 90% silver. I rarely use the word "sterling" when referring to older Native American silver or really any older silver jewelry as silver contents vary and "sterling" is 92.5% silver. No older jewelry is going to be exactly 92.5% silver, some a little over, some a little under. It wasn't an exact thing with handmade jewelry. I've seen thousands of pieces xrf'd to prove this. Bracelets are photographed on a 6" women's wrist.

中世纪 Margot De Taxco 纯银别针。无损坏或明显磨损，1.5 英寸 x 1.75 英寸 x 8.9 克。 -安德拉斯-玛格特·范·沃里斯 (Margot Van Voorhies) 1896 年出生于加利福尼亚州旧金山。当她永远离开祖国时，她已经经历了 1903 年父亲的去世、1906 年旧金山地震、1931 年母亲死于残忍的凶手之手以及她第一次婚姻的结束。 1936年。 幸运的是，一次墨西哥假期以她从未想象过的方式改变了玛格特·范沃里斯的生活。 1937 年，41 岁的离婚者玛格特·范·沃里斯 (Margot Van Voorhies) 离开旧金山前往墨西哥城。命运将她推向了唐·安东尼奥·卡斯蒂略 (Don Antonio Castillo) 的道路，后者将她带到了塔斯科 (Taxco)，这里是墨西哥设计、制作和生产银制品（尤其是珠宝和家居用品）的温床。很快，卡斯蒂略将成为玛戈特的第二任丈夫。当时，卡斯蒂略正在为墨西哥银匠先驱威廉·斯普拉特林工作。他让玛戈特以设计师的身份进入这个行业，帮助她将纸质作品转变成银色的三维形式。 1939 年，两人与 Castillo 家族的其他成员一起开了一家名为 Los Castillo Taller 的商店（Taller 在西班牙语中是“工作室”的意思），由 Margot 担任首席设计师。 十年后，卡斯蒂略和范沃里斯之间的婚姻解散了，他们的职业协会也解散了。 Margot 于 1948 年开设了自己的商店，并取名为 Margot de Taxco，至今她最为人所知。七年后，她的许多作品中都添加了珐琅，这就是玛戈特找到她遗产的地方。在她职业生涯的巅峰时期，玛戈特亲自设计了每件作品，并雇佣了两打银匠和十几名珐琅师来实现她的愿景。这些人履行银匠的职责。女人们负责珐琅工作，用小刷子让水彩画栩栩如生。为了确保准确呈现她的珠宝设计，她编写了一本说明书和图纸，详细介绍了每件作品的构造和精加工。玛戈特吸引了后来巩固自己声誉的才华横溢的工匠，如西吉·皮内达 (Sigi Pineda)、米格尔·梅伦德斯 (Miguel Melendez) 和梅莱西奥·罗德里格斯 (Melecio Rodriguez)。 许多当代好莱坞名人都是玛格特的顾客，包括约翰·韦恩和拉娜·特纳，他们每年都会光顾她的店。 1960 年，悲剧以一场火灾的形式发生。她被迫搬迁工作室，再也没有恢复之前的成功，公司于 1974 年倒闭。玛戈特允许她雇用的几位银匠使用她的模具在他们自己的，以换取债务减免。结果，玛戈特的许多作品都被 Jaimie Quiroz 和 Geronimo Fuentes 等银匠重新制作，带有他们的标志，而不是她的标志。 Margot 于 1985 年去世。但自她去世以来，她作为设计师的才华和作为艺术家的影响力不断获得认可。 玛戈特的商店生产了一些凸纹银（一种从银饰背面锤打出凸起或浮雕图案的技术）。但她最出名的是她的内填珐琅作品。内填珐琅是通过雕刻、蚀刻、敲击或在工件表面铸造凹槽或单元并用釉质填充而制成的。在玛戈特的珠宝中，设计是模压的，这一过程对于最终产品来说非常详细且至关重要。玛戈特制作了许多套装，包括项链、胸针、手链、耳环以及可转换珠宝。 Margot de Taxco 珠宝以其优雅、女性气质和多样性而闻名。 玛戈特的作品在很多方面都有影响。她的鱼和波浪图案表达了她对日本艺术的热爱。华丽的漩涡和花卉图案让人想起新艺术风格。前哥伦布时代淘气的人物是一个反复出现的主题。装饰艺术风格的芭蕾舞演员摆出优雅的姿势。玛戈特还喜欢埃及图案和墨西哥工艺品。 Margot de Taxco 的作品以印有她的名字 Eagle 16（或 Eagle 1，代表她早期作品）以及生产编号的印记为特色。鹰印章由政府发行，是识别身份的一种方式

Lisa D'Agostino 18k/Sterling modernist earrings 10-11mm square, high quality<br>workmanship and design. No backs included, no other issues. 5.2 grams.For Lisa,<br>working with her hands has been the only thing that has ever really interested<br>her. Her curiosity about the potential for designing and creating with metal has<br>lasted since 1980. That year she participated in her first art fair. The shows<br>were local at first, but gradually developed into national venues that included<br>galleries as well. Except for an additional 12-year foray into baskets (see "The<br>Basketmaker's Art", Lark Publications) her focus has been on jewelry.The designs<br>have evolved over the years but the inspirations have remained the same. Lisa's<br>pieces are informed by geometry and architecture but tempered by the poetic and<br>philosophical aspects presented by astronomy. She ponders a phrase from an old<br>sixties song... "we are stardust - billion year old carbon."The work begins with<br>a loose drawing until a new solution or idea presents itself. It is a balance<br>between intention/chance and spontaneity/deliberation. The contours and forms<br>are simple at first. She likes the rigor and order of basic geometric shapes but<br>then organizing them into something more complex. Shapes are cut out of sterling<br>silver and formed or scored and soldered together. Other parts are distorted<br>through the rolling mill. Surfaces are textured with files or hammers or fused<br>with silver dust or 18K yellow gold. Many techniques may be incorporated into<br>one piece using a variety of hand tools, some of which are her oldest<br>buddies.The final steps involve patination of the piece, and then selectively<br>removing some of the patina to leave combinations of matte or polished surface<br>areas. Earthy rough stones and lustrous pearls are used to further enhance the<br>piece.Lisa was formally introduced to art at college. She earned a Bachelor of<br>Fine Arts degree at Bowling Green State University in 1977, but never really<br>learned to solder well until she was able to work in her own studio. She went<br>back to school, and after 3 years she earned a Master of Fine Arts degree from<br>the University of Kansas in 1991. During this time she continued to show and<br>sell her work at many selected art fairs and galleries across the country.All<br>precious metals are tested and guaranteed, any Native American jewelry referred<br>to as Silver or Sterling is guaranteed to be a minimum of 90% (coin) silver and<br>possibly higher content. Most cuff bracelets are shown photographed on a 6"<br>woman's wrist and will include a photo showing the inside circumference where<br>the metal tip meets the number on the tape measure.

Navajo Ray Tracey Knifewing 现代镶嵌耳环 1.25 英寸宽方形。轻微划痕，无深划痕、弯曲或对宝石造成损坏。灵感推动的创作过程 “上帝赐予每个人各种天赋和才能。”造物主赐予雷以创造力。灵感是他创作精神的基础。灵感会以多种形式和伪装出现在最意想不到的时候。他的祖先也曾在西南峡谷徒步旅行，这让雷产生了崇敬之情。怀着感恩和感恩的心平静地行走，可以打开感官来接收想法。峡谷壁上雕刻的岩画变成了可穿戴的艺术品。 Yei 吊坠的表面再现了古老的故事。傍晚天空颜色的变换为 Earth and Sky 珠宝系列提供了灵感。有一次，在打高尔夫球时，一只白色的蝴蝶落在雷的高尔夫球袋上，陪伴他走上球道。这一事件将蝴蝶和蜻蜓的设计理念变为现实。意识到这种特殊的天赋后，他渴望知道它的起源。 艺术家雷·特雷西 (Ray Tracey) 一生都热爱珠宝。当他还是个在亚利桑那州索米尔长大的孩子时，他的祖父阿萨·特雷西（Asa Tracey）就用为叔叔拉山羊风箱的故事影响了他。阿萨会整天抽动山羊风箱，为熔炉中的火提供燃料，从而在小铸铁坩埚中熔化银。这个过程非常费力，他的祖父讨厌它。然后将熔化的银倒入凝灰岩模具中形成锭。然后，珠宝商将执行他的工艺并制作出一件新的珠宝。 “我想看到成品珠宝，并想尽我所能地学习一切。每当我们去新墨西哥州盖洛普时，我都会去古玩店看看银制品。”雷花时间在盖洛普部落印第安仪式和纳瓦霍国家博览会上观看珠宝设计。到处都陈列着珠宝；可以看到雷正在观看艺术品。 雷六岁时，全家搬到了亚利桑那州加纳多。他九岁那年的一个夏天，他向母亲抱怨自己多么无聊。第二天，他的母亲将他送入暑期学校，并永远改变了他的生活。他直接去上美术课，在角落里发现了一张银器锻造桌。他记得他祖父的故事，剩下的就是历史了。 “在课堂上，我为母亲制作了我的第一枚银戒指。我找到了一块不知名的石头，并制作了一颗凸圆面。我试图复制我在 Hubbells Trading Post 看到的老式戒指设计。石头的侧面有一滴泪珠。这是一个非常简单的设计，但我花了一周的时间才完成。我不断地熔化银子。 21 岁时，我制作了下一件银石作品，并将其送给了我的母亲。这是另一枚戒指，但这次是一个裂开的戒指，有三根肋骨，石头侧面有三滴泪珠。”我告诉父亲，我想用余生制作珠宝。” Ray 在杨百翰大学就读期间继续制作珠宝。白天学习化学和物理，晚上制作珠宝。 “设计很简单，我最喜欢的是老式纳瓦霍珠宝。周末他去新墨西哥州盖洛普出售他的作品。在杨百翰大学期间，另一个展现他创造力的机会出现了——表演。 “我不是一个非常优秀的学生，所以好莱坞立刻就产生了吸引力。我的创造力天赋延续到了表演中。表演只是创造性表达的另一个出口。”雷的冒险天性使他能够在故事片和电视中担任演员多年。这段演艺弯路并未让他失去对珠宝设计的兴趣。最终，雷对珠宝的热爱让他回到新墨西哥州，永久地追求这种艺术形式。 “有一次，在从盖洛普前往阿尔伯克基的途中，我注意到普韦布洛湖上空的地平线。我看到台面上有台阶。我将这种分层阶梯的图像融入到手镯设计中。” “还有一次，当我在霍布尔溪高尔夫球场打高尔夫球时，我看到河底有一排卵石。这些鹅卵石成为我的灵感来源，我将它们放置在镶嵌手镯的侧面。” “有时我的创造力会戛然而止。当这种情况发生时，我就会回到我的根源；旧式珠宝。这就是令人着迷的地方。古圣们利用基本的工具来创造他们简单而完美的工艺品。从这一点开始，我能够根据鼓舞人心的想法进行创作。另一方面，有时我的脑海里充满了比我能记得的更多的设计。想法来得太快，我来不及快点把它们画出来。” “当我看到有人穿着我的设计作品时，我就会回到创作这件作品的时代。有时我可以回忆起我吃的东西，甚至我听的音乐。我会记住帮助创造该设计的灵感。” 雷找到了自我表达的道路或天赋，这祝福、启发并影响了他的生活和他人。对这种特殊天赋的认识激发了他的能量和创造力。灵感有助于将他的创造力转化为艺术视觉表达。他的创作是从传统到当代的过渡人物。当他被尚未发现的图像领域所吸引时，他创造了一些美好的东西。不知不觉中，他正在创造一份遗产，让几代人可以从中学习和成长。雷学会了欣赏和拥抱生命的旅程及其礼物。
