GNS George STEERE
Phoenix motif hidden locket brooch with fittings for one
photo. The topaz colored faceted rhinestone shows from behind the swirl of the bird’s
wings, circa 1910, 3" by 2-5/8". The locket is under the front motif and opens
on a hinge. Steere made jewelry in Rhode Island from about 1906-1911, and his
pieces have a mythical feel in their motifs. This is the first locket brooch I
have seen from this maker so I assume they are fairly rare.
