From the private collection of a continental ladyAN ENAMEL AND GEM-SET NOVELTY BROOCH, BY FRASCAROLO, CIRCA 1970Designed as a whimsical basset hound with blue enamel body to onyx nose, green agate for eyes and single-cut diamond snout et eyebrows, mounted in 18K gold, maker's mark 'FC' (near indistinct) for Frascarolo, French assay mark, length 4.3cmPierino ‘Rino’ Frascarolo was born in Milan in 1928. He began his jewellery career as an apprentice with the Fratelli Lunati company, before going on to find his own firm with his partner, Aldo Lenti. In 1948 he moved his factory to Valenza in Corso Matteotti. It was here that Frascarolo began to design and craft his signature enamel and gold animal creations, the ‘Bestiario’, for which he would become best known.Frascarolo's animal jewels were produced throughout the 1960s and proved so popular that he was unofficially dubbed the ‘David Webb of Italy’. Admirers included HRH The Princess Margaret who owned a tiger bangle and ring by him. It was during this time that the maison of Frascarolo was at its height and his exquisite creations attracted clientele from all over Europe and beyond, who were enchanted by his lively and colourful portrayal of animals in the form of wearable pieces.The manufacture of these pieces was not an easy feat, and their huge popularity is a credit to Frascarolo’s skill as a craftsman. He used casting techniques and machinery that was hugely advanced for the time and employed up to fifty craftsmen at once. Frascarolo and his partner Lenti went their separate ways and the former then established his own brand, Frascarolo & Co., in New York City. Through this venture, Frascarolo brought the work of Italian jewellery masters to new heights of international renown.Pierino Frascarolo died in Valenza in 1976 at just forty-eight years old, whilst his jewellery business was at its peak. Following Pierino’s untimely death, Frascarolo & Co closed its business activities the same year, but due to their collectible nature, his pieces remain in very high demand.Condition Report: Enamel: some enamel missing near tummy of the dog, ears and near the tail (contact jewellery dpt for additional images)Diamonds: bright and well matchedMaker's Mark: visible when tilting with 10x magnification and bright light source - due to repolishing - on regular horizontal plaquette on the reverseOwl for 18K gold located on the reverse of a pawSome signs of wear but considered overall in good condition given the ageTotal gross weight approx. 24.30g
