Vintage MCM Studio Sterling Silver Repoussé Figural Pig Brooch Pendant, Unsigned

A wonderfully sculptural and dynamic piece of wearable art, this vintage figural brooch captures the spirit of the Mid-Century Modern studio movement. Crafted from a substantial 18.10 grams of sterling silver, this charming pig is rendered in a fluid, leaping pose, showcasing the skill of the anonymous artisan. The hollow-form body, created using the traditional repoussé technique, gives the piece a bold, three-dimensional presence. The design is minimalist yet full of life, from the simplified ears and snout to the jaunty curl of the tail. The silver has developed a deep, honest patina that speaks to its history, which we have left beautifully intact. Unsigned, as is common with many artist-made studio pieces from the era, its quality and style speak for themselves. A versatile 'pin-dant' design, it features both a secure pin-back and an integrated bail, allowing it to be worn as a statement brooch or a unique pendant necklace.
