Antique Vienna Succession Austro Hungarian Silver Plated Ribbon Pin Brooch
The item up for offer is a lovely antique C.1921 Vienna Succession Austro-Hungarian Sterling Silver plated over brass ribbon pin/brooch. This piece features a safety type clasp. This piece features a hallmark "AX".
The formation of the Vienna Secession in 1897 marked, quite accurately, the formal beginning of modern art in Austria - a nation at the time noted for its attachment to a highly conservative tradition. It was the coalescence of the first movement of artists and designers who were committed to a forward-thinking, internationalist view of the art world, all-encompassing in its embrace and integration of genres and fields, and - highly idealistically - freed from the dictates of entrenched values or prevailing commercial tastes.
