Retro jewellery of this period of the 1940’s and 1950’s is so uniquely characterised by such a distinct somewhat flamboyant style and here in this Cartier brooch you can see that the brooch was designed not simply with a floral design in mind typical of the Victorian era of the 1800’s, rather it goes so much further with the angular asymmetrical design at the bottom.

It is this small attention to detail that shows just how high the standard and quality was for jewellery that is produced by Cartier
