Personality – a sparkle through the ages

From ancient Bronze Age brooches, known at the time as fibulae, to the elaborate masterpieces of Art Nouveau and Art Deco, each era has shaped its own styles and trends. Brooches of antiquity were not only made of gold and precious stones, but glass beads were also used as imitations of turquoise and lapis lazuli. A preserved gold pin from the Treasure of Troy (2300-2100 BC), with its depiction of miniature vessels and ornaments, demonstrates the fine craftsmanship already capable of that time. In the Victorian era (England 1837-1901), a different craft showcased its skills: magnificent brooches captivated with romantic designs, enamel, precious stones, and pearls. Art Nouveau in Europe (1895-1910) was characterized by organic forms, natural motifs, abstract ornamental motifs, and even abstract geometric motifs, and continues to delight collectors today. France's Art Deco style often combined geometric, clean and abstract forms with diamonds, enamel and precious stones.

These vintage brooches retain their charm to this day. It doesn't have to be one of the Cullinan diamond brooches that Queen Elizabeth II loved to wear, featuring individual diamonds ranging from 530.2 to 18.5 carats. Whatever you're looking for, our antique brooches will make your heart sing—be it a collectible with historical significance or a fashionable accessory.

Antique brooches for every occasion - wear them as you like!

Perhaps you remember the family portrait with your great-great-aunt Hertha: She proudly wears a gigantic garnet brooch on her chest. Perhaps it's even an heirloom. But the days when an antique brooch was the equivalent of a man's chest adorned with medals are over. Today, brooches are an expression of individual style and personality. Used brooches can therefore be worn in a variety of ways and add that special something to any outfit. Here are a few modern styling ideas:

  1. Decorate the sleeves of your blouse or denim shirt with a pretty vintage brooch. This will make every movement a real eye-catcher.
  2. Add accents to your turtleneck, shirt, or blouse collar with antique brooches.
  3. Decorate caps or hats with an original pin - you're guaranteed to stand out.
  4. Use brooches as stylish collar fasteners. A delicate piece of jewelry in silver or gold adds an elegant touch to any outfit.

Brooch or pin - what's the difference?

Both are pieces of jewelry that you can easily attach to your clothing, creating a truly personal style. However, there are a few differences to consider when designing them:

broochesThey are often distinguished by their striking design and decorative details. They are prized because they are perfect accessories for blouses, jackets, scarves, or bags. From antique and playful to elegant and vintage-inspired, brooches offer a wide range of style options. With their larger surface area, they are securely attached with either a pin or a clip and add a special touch, especially to solid-colored garments.

pinsare simpler and generally less conspicuous. However, they can be used in a variety of ways, as they go well with more complex outfits. These pins combine simplicity with functionality and add an elegant touch to your look. They look particularly good on patterned garments and on the lapel of a suit.

A vintage brooch alone doesn't sparkle enough?Vintage pendantsThey can be used in many different ways. Elegant gentlemen combine a lapel pin withantique cufflinksor a high-qualityVintage watch.
