A Rare Eckfeldt & Ackley 14k Gold Pinwheel Brooch with Blue Zircon
Item: BRO0256
This exquisite vintage brooch showcases the superior craftsmanship of Eckfeldt & Ackley, the celebrated jewelers from Newark, NJ. The intricate pinwheel design is crafted from two-tone 14k gold, with warm yellow gold petals that reveal a soft rose gold underside as they gently curl. At the center, a beautiful round natural blue zircon, weighing an estimated 1.11 carats, adds a captivating sparkle. The reverse side bears the distinctive acorn hallmark used by Eckfeldt & Ackley. For collectors and enthusiasts, this pin is particularly fascinating, as the same acorn hallmark has been discovered on Tiffany & Co. pieces of the same period, hinting at the esteemed circle in which this maker operated.
The brooch measures 1 5/8" in diameter, and weighs 8.4 grams.
Very good condition.
Circa 1940s
