Rare 1950s Cartier flower brooch set with a high-quality sapphire. Crafted for the American market at the Cartier New York boutique, it is presented in its original box. The 18k gold pin bears all original stamps and signatures, including an inventory number, the Cartier signature and the ‘18k’ mark. Typical of Cartier’s 1950s fauna and flora series, the brooch is finely carved and unique in design—each piece from this period often features different gemstones. This example is in exceptional, likely unworn condition, showing no signs of wear; its signature and marks remain crisp and highly legible.
