A stunning Pennino brooch, made in the United States around 1947, in vermeil (gilded silver), in the shape of a bow—one of the maison's most iconic and feminine motifs.

The 8 x 5 cm composition is embellished with a refined alternating pattern of blue and white rhinestones, expertly arranged to create an elegant color contrast and a suggestive play of light. The sinuous and dynamic lines of the bow reflect the mastery of the Pennino brothers, renowned for their ability to combine graceful design with the highest level of craftsmanship.

A perfect example of the sophisticated style of postwar American costume jewelry, this brooch combines classic elegance and dramatic brilliance, characteristics that made Pennino jewelry highly prized by both the public and collectors.

For this charitable initiative, Memorabid is responsible for collecting pre-auction bids.

The final closing of the lot will take place during the event on Tuesday, December 2nd, at 6:30 PM at Palazzo Broletto in Pavia.

At the end of the pre-auction, the highest bid received for each lot will constitute the starting bid for the in-person event. If there are no further bids, the pre-auction winner will definitively win the lot.

Pre-auction winners will receive an email inviting them to raise a maximum bid, which will be carried over to the auction on December 2nd to protect the interests of the online pre-auction participant.
