A Red Glitter Silver Spotted Fantasy Dachshund Brooch signed Lea Stein Paris

Here is a pin that will appeal to all who adore dogs - a cute little Dachshund brooch. It is by the famous Parisian designer Lea Stein and it has her signature on the 'v' shaped pin fastening. This little dog brooch is in a very festive Christmas colour- a sparkly red glitter with silvery white spots on the body, head and legs and a shiny plain burgundy pearly droopy ear. This colour is a paler red and gold glitter  on the reverse with just a different red black laminate scrap on the  tip of the ear showing.   The little Lea Stein Dachshund Brooch measures about 3 inches by 1.5 inches.  It is made of layered celluloid acetate or rhodoid with the addition of a glitter layer. Lea Stein sometimes encapsulated materials such as fabric or metal within the layered jewellery and the use of glitter is also a technique perfected by her in Paris. This is a contemporary design from Lea Stein who is famed for her jewellery, particularly her animal designs which have featured cats, foxes, dogs, birds and many other things over her history.          Now for that history -
