Marked TP-112 Mexico, it reflects the mid-century Mexican tradition of inventive, sculptural design. The central element is a beautifully twisted rope bar, the sterling silver wound into a tight, spiraling cable that runs the full width of the brooch and catches the light along every groove for a wonderfully tactile, dimensional surface. Anchoring each end is a chunky, faceted brass cap, hand-formed with carved facets that resemble the knotted finials of a ceremonial baton or scepter, lending the design a regal, architectural presence. Capping the very tips are small cabochons of deep cobalt blue, likely glass or lapis-toned stone, whose vivid color provides a jewel-like punctuation against the silver and brass. The overall form is clean, linear, and confidently modernist, the kind of statement bar pin that reads as both vintage and timelessly chic. The reverse, shown here, reveals a secure hinged pin-and-C-clasp mechanism and the maker's cartouche hallmark stamped at center, confirming its authenticity and quality construction. Condition appears very good and honestly vintage, with the brass showing a mellow aged glow, the silver toned in the recesses of the twist, and the blue tips intact and bright. This brooch will appeal to collectors of Mexican silver, mixed-metal and modernist jewelry enthusiasts, and anyone seeking a distinctive, sculptural accessory with genuine artisanal character. Generously scaled to make a statement on a lapel, collar, or scarf, it carries the weight and presence of a true handcrafted piece, an eye-catching and collectible addition to any estate jewelry wardrobe.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mr Silverware","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55225673515299,"sku":"vintage-tp-112-mexico-925-sterling-silver-brass-pin-brooch","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0889\/6099\/1523\/files\/vintage-tp-112-mexico-925-sterling-silver-brass-pin-brooch_01.jpg?v=1781302340","url":"https:\/\/dannysvintagewatches.com\/products\/vintage-tp-112-mexico-925-sterling-silver-brass-pin-brooch","provider":"Danny's Vintage Watches","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
