LEA STEIN BROOCH - THE DECO CAT - BLACK AND SWIRLEY WHITE

The deco cat is one of my favourite Lea Stein designs.  It is also one of the older one - but this particular brooch has been made recently.  Although in her eighties Ms. Stein is still busy making her wonderful brooches - that are popular the world over!  I have never had this particular design in black and white before and think it looks great - I would wear it on a black jacket (black being my favourite colour!).  Please see my web site for details.  Ref: 3322 D39/18

LEA STEIN BROOCH - THE SLEEPING/LYING DOWN CAT - IVORINE

Its the time of year that people come into my shop to buy Lea Stein brooches as X-mass presents.  I am behind with my photography and and number of brooches are not yet in the shop.  If you are looking for a special one please let me know and I will look at home for you.  This is the sleeping or lying down cat in an ivorine colour - a very popular design.  Full details on the web site.  Price £65 Ref: 3244 D24/8

LEA STEIN BROOCH - SLEEPING/LYING DOWN CAT - GOLDEN

This is the Lea Stein lying down/sleeping cat brooch.  It is in a most unusual colour - a spakley yellow gold - a colour that I have not had on its own before.  It has black ears and eyes and it is correctly marked on the pin - Lea Stein Paris.  So lucky to get this one!  It measures about 2 3/4 inches across.  Price £65 r5ef: 3198 D5/43

LEA STEIN BROOCH - THE SITTING CAT - EMERALD GREEN

Love the colour of this Lea Stein brooch - a patterned emerald green.  It is the sitting cat.  The ears and eyes are ivorine.  Stunning!  So much better than the cheap looking copies/reproductions/fakes that are to be found.  This one is genuine and has the correct pin on the reverse.  Full details on my web site.  Price £65 ref: 3029  C58/17

LEA STEIN BROOCH - ART DECO CAT - RED & BLACK

This is my favourite out of the Lea Stein cat brooches.  Love the Art Deco period - and although this was not made then, she has captured the era!    This cat brooch is in red with black and white.  It is a genuine Lea Stein - I do not sell the fakes.  It has the correct pin on the back - marked Lea Stein Paris.  I usually have a good selection of her brooches in my shop at Grays Antiques in central London.  Grays Antiques in two separate buildings.  The Mews, where I am, has one of the biggest selections of Vintage Costume Jewellery in the country!  Do pay us a visit.  Price £65.  Reference 2792 C8/1

PAVONE BROOCH - CAT'S FACE - RED, ORANGE, BLACK

This is a cat's face brooch by Marie Christine Pavone, Paris.  It is made in old galalith

- an early plastic.  She cuts, dyes, polishes, paints and lacquers each piece - which is very time consuming!  See Notes on my web site - www.gillianhorsup.com - on Pavone  (Manufacturers - my blog).  Price £65 reference 2722 C4/47.  I love the humour in her pieces! This cat has character!
