a HUGE vintage 1930s Art Deco Functionalism sterling silver brooch pin designed by the young Karl Gustav Hansen for his father's company Hans Hansen of Copenhagen Denmark. This exact design is pictured in "Karl Gustav Hansen: Solv/Silber 1930-1994" and noted as being from the period 1932-34 and among the designers earliest jewelry designs. Functionalism was the Danish term for a distinctive Danish blend of Art Deco and modernism that was pared-down and devoid of extraneous ornamentation, and Karl Gustav Hansen was one of the countries leading exponents of the design aesthetic. Measures 3-1/2" long by 1-1/4" wide, and weighs 15.9 grams. Marked as shown in the photos, "Denmark 925S", early maker mark conjoined HH for Hans Hansen, and design number "103". Excellent vintage condition.

Karl Gustav Hansen was the son of Hans Hansen, and went on to be amongst the upper echelon of Danish jewelry designers of the 20th century.

This example from his early days, the dawn of Functionalism, a branch of International Modernism.

a SUPERB pair of vintage 1950s one of a kind handmade sterling silver modernist cufflinks by American artist/metalsmith duo Irvin and Bonnie Burkee of Colorado. Entirely handmade deeply incised design that has been oxidized black to contrast with the polished silver surface surrounding it. No doubt a one of a kind pair as it's the only example that I have seen by them in my 45+ year career! The Burkee brand was born in Colorado, but they moved to Arizona in the 1970s where they remained for the rest of their lives. These one of a kind wearable art cufflinks measure an impressive 7/8" by 7/8" at fronts, and the set weighs a substantial 0.8 ounce or roughly about 23 grams total. Marked as shown, "Burkee" and "Sterling". Excellent vintage condition

a RARE pair of vintage 1950s handmade sterling silver and enamel abstract modernist design cufflinks by the firm of Hans Hansen of Denmark. A striking design and very hard to find! Each measures 3/4" by 3/4", and the pair weigh a hefty 27.2 grams total. Marked as shown with design number "637 E", conjoined double letter H maker mark for Hans Hansen, also "925S Denmark". Excellent vintage condition with just fine light wear and tarnish as shown - please view the photos, read the description, and ask all questions prior to purchase. I am open to reasonable offers from serious buyers.

a BIG and heavy pair of vintage 1950s handmade sterling silver abstract geometric modernist cufflinks by California artist/silversmith Harold Fithian. At the larger end of the scale for cufflinks made by Fithian, and one of the heaviest pairs by him I've seen! A large sculptural disk with an incised abstract shape at front that has been oxidized (black) for contrast! Harold Fithian (1905-1972) was an all-American romantic figure - he was born and raised in Southern California - worked on the back lot of Universal Studios in Hollywood in the 1920s - was a labor organizer and friend of Woody Guthrie in the 1930s and 40s - a well-known designer and metalsmith in the 1950s and 60s - and he is particularly well-known for his modernist style cufflinks and other mens jewelry. His work is rare compared to most other studio modernist silversmiths, and his pieces are getting harder and harder to find! Each cufflink measures 1" diameter, and the pair weigh a super hefty 1 ounce or just over 30 grams total. Marked with his "Fi" maker mark, also marked "Sterling". Excellent vintage condition with just fine light wear and tarnish as shown - please view the photos, read the description, and ask all questions prior to purchase. I am open to reasonable offers from serious buyers.
