Description: RARE SET - Vintage 1970s CARMEN BECKMANN Taxco 925 Sterling Silver Graduated Balls and Braid Double Curve Brooch & Curve Screw Back Earring 26.4g signed DESCRIPTION Condition: vintage, pre-owned, gently worn, lovely condition. The screw backs on the earrings have been retained rather than professionally altering to pierced drop or post earrings. Retaining the original earring back design is usual for collectible pieces. However, a professional jeweler can make a relatively simple and inexpensive modification conversion should the wearer prefer pierced earrings. Quantity: 1 Color: silver, oxidized silver. Weight: 26.4 grams total (brooch 16.9 grams, earrings- 9.5 grams). Dimensions: brooch- 3 1/2" long x 1 3/8" wide x 7/16" deep; earrings- 1 1/4” highs x 5/8” wide x 7/32” deep. Material: 925 Sterling Silver. Hallmarks: Sterling, Mexico, Beckmann, 925 Interesting Bits: Striking, 1970s vintage .925 sterling silver, hand-wrought Taxco Mexico brooch and earring SET by highly collectible Carmen Beckmann. The original, unusual design of both brooch and matching earrings features graduated, highly polished sterling balls following a curve created by a twisted sterling braid. The double curve of the brooch is a perfect sine wave with five sterling balls on each half of the switchback curve. Each earring features a single curve with four graduated sterling balls. The earrings follow the curve of the ear....very prettily. This master silversmith is acclaimed for beautiful geometric, modernist pieces ---always unique, sophisticated and charming. This wonderful brooch and earring set is beautifully designed and expertly executed, highly collectible, seldom found and looks super on. Great Gift — especially but not only for yourself!
