Vintage Swoboda Jade Leaf & Carnelian Berries Brooch
Vintage Swoboda Jade Leaf & Carnelian Berries Brooch Signed Circa 1960s–70s
A beautifully crafted vintage Swoboda brooch featuring a carved jade leaf paired with a cluster of round carnelian berries. The warm gold‑tone setting highlights the natural stones, giving the piece that signature mid‑century Swoboda charm. Botanical, sculptural, and quietly luxurious — a lovely example of the brand’s Los Angeles studio work from the 1960s–70s.
Very good vintage condition with light, age‑appropriate wear. Stones are secure, gold‑tone metal retains its shine, and the pin mechanism works smoothly. Signed © Swoboda Inc on the reverse.
