Brooch

Marcus & Co. (New York City, New York)

c.1900

This exquisite brooch is one of the few extant examples of plique-à-jour jewelry made by the New York firm of Marcus & Co., whose reputation at its prime rivaled that of Tiffany & Co. Herman Marcus (1828–99), a German–born and Dresden–trained jeweler, arrived in New York in 1850 and worked for a number of prestigious firms before establishing Marcus & Co. in 1892. Following his death, the company continued under the direction of his two sons, George Elder Marcus and William Marcus.

The brooch is a superb example of Marcus & Co.’s work in plique-à-jour enameling, in which the "cells" of color have no backing, allowing light to shine through the transparent enamel, thereby creating the effect of stained glass. One of the only jewelry firms of its day to succeed at this challenging technique, Marcus & Co. followed the lead of such innovative French designers as René Lalique. The sensitive 3-dimensional sculpting of the sweet pea blossoms and leaves, as well as the naturalistic coloring of the enamels, reflects the Art Nouveau aesthetic that prevailed at the turn of the century. Indeed, close parallels can be drawn with the brilliant naturalistic work of Louis Comfort Tiffany, whose oeuvre is so well represented in the Met’s collection.

Current Shop Offerings

Hello everyone! We narrowly avoided having to close our shop a month ago, but thanks to your amazing support, we're slowly catching up on everything and getting back on our feet. We're also in the delicate position of having to maintain a sufficient income so my partner (husband/business partner) can continue to stay here in Austria, which is why we are always so deeply appreciative of your support! When you purchase from us or even just share our posts, you're supporting our family and allowing us to stay together here in Austria. The move here has been a really difficult transition for the shop, but I am so determined to work out all the kinks and keep this family business of 10+ years running.

I thought I'd make this post so those who wish to support us know how to do so! First of all, reblogging and sharing posts is such an amazing help.

Here's what I have in the shop right now:

My latest handmade jewelry collection, a large assortment of crystals, and prints and journals made and shipped from the US with our original photography!

I also had a little discounted crystal set sale here on Tumblr recently, which you can find here.

I am currently in the process of launching my Patreon, which will have a wider range of content, and I will be restarting my email news letter as well.

Other places you can find us: Crystal Instagram | Jewelry/Art Instagram | TikTok | YouTube

Thank you so much!

Bodice Ornament & Hair Comb

René Lalique

1903-1904

The Art Nouveau style caused a dramatic shift in jewellery design, reaching a peak around 1900 when it triumphed at the Paris International Exhibition.

Its followers created sinuous, organic pieces whose undercurrents of eroticism and death were a world away from the floral motifs of earlier generations. Art Nouveau jewellers like René Lalique also distanced themselves from conventional precious stones and put greater emphasis on the subtle effects of materials such as glass, horn and enamel.

René Lalique, 'the admitted king of Paris fashions', chose his materials for aesthetic effect and artistic refinement, not for mere preciousness or brilliance. Credited with introducing horn into the jewellery repertoire, he dazzled the public with a collection of ornamental combs made of horn. They were moulded and sculpted in the shape of flowers, waves and butterflies.
