A rare antique 18 karat gold gas lamp pin/brooch. Made in 1940 by the renowned Paris jeweler "Mauboussin", it was designed after the gas street lamps that once lined the block outside of their Place Vendome store location. The gas lamp is intricately detailed with three faceted quartz window panes, an ornate decorative lamp top, attached atop a scroll bracket, aside a cloisonné blue glass fused sign reading "Place Vendome". A threaded post and nut on the back of the sign allow it to be interchanged. The brooch is 1.5" in length by 1" in width and is secured by a double hooked pin with a spring hinge. A masterfully crafted vintage piece!
