                      This is an extraordinary Napier brooch that seems to have been produced in limited numbers. Often designs within a grouping were made in quantities of 25 or less. As someone who has studied Napier for over 22 years, I have seen this piece three times. The brooch features beautiful curvy open metal work suspending an array of silver-plated and glass charms including a crown, gryphons, and a bee. We are very excited to be able to share this piece here!from The Napier Book https://ift.tt/dfP5bVM

                      We have known this grouping was from 1957 into the 1960s. Here’s a feature from WWD in 1960. Over the course of the years, the design used both round and square wire utilizing both warm and cool rhinestone tones. According to employees this collection was very expensive to produce, as evidenced by the retail price of the necklace. (copyrighted content) An airy overlapping of golden circles set with two-toned blue stones creates unusual style from The Napier Co., New York ($17.50 each). WWD, Friday February 19, 1960.
