History & Style: This comet-shaped brooch reflects the renewed interest in space from the end of the 50s and into the 70s, linked in particular to the space race led by the USSR and the States. -United in the middle of the Cold War.
The gray gold threads punctuated with stones symbolize the hairs or halos that comets leave in their wake. The increasingly wide opening of these threads and the finer stones allow us to feel the swirling movement of the advancing comet.
