SOLD A Ric the Terrier Brooch wearing Gold Studded Collar - Dog Pin by Lea Stein of Paris

Ric the Terrier is one a range of dog brooches and pins designed by Lea Stein of Paris.  Ric is a vintage 1950s style brooch that will appeal to all who adore Terrier dogs or collect dog brooches. Lea Stein’s Ric comes in two subtly different styles now; the earliest version of  Ric has a lozenge dog tag hanging from his collar. The latest Ric style shows Ric’s collar with three distinctive gold dots to represent studs but no dog tag! One of the photos shows the two versions so you can compare. They look amazing when worn together so you may like to buy one of each style if you get the chance.
 Here we have a classic Ivory effect cream laminate for this large terrier dog brooch. This delightful dog has black ears, nose and eye plus a black collar with three  gold studded dots for added appeal.
This gorgeous dog brooch is by the famous Parisian designer Lea Stein and it has her signature on the 'v' shaped pin fastening to prove it. This dog pin is plain creamy white to the reverse with just the ears and nose in contrasting laminates - one ear being black and the other plus the nose being purple with gold. The Lea Stein Ric the Terrier Brooch measures about 9 cms by 6 cms. It is made of layered celluloid acetate or rhodoid. This is a more recent 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 -
