SOLD A Glitter Red and Gold 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 facing to the right and is in a very pleasing colour- a sparkly red and pale gold glitter with a subtle spot design on the body, head and legs and a plain sparkly gold droopy ear. This colour is repeated in a lighter tone on the reverse.   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 -
