This richly detailed Art-Nouveau medallion brooch is die-struck in raised relief and crafted from silver-plated brass. Jeanne d’Arc is depicted in full armour with a laurel crown and halo, accompanied by a crowned sword and the Cross of Lorraine entwined with laurel leaves, evoking her sacrifice, triumph, and enduring legacy. Her name inscribed in raised lettering along the top. The softly flowing, branch-like outline of the medallion firmly anchors the design within the Art-Nouveau aesthetic. Signed “LÈVY”, likely the medallist responsible for the design. Celebrated as both saint and national heroine, Jeanne d’Arc remains one of France’s most enduring symbols of faith and courage, making this brooch an especially evocative and collectible tribute to her legacy and the history of France.
The brooch measures 2,6 cm in diameter.
This brooch is in very good Antique condition, no major visible dents or scratches. Some very minor wear on the silver plating which is barely noticeable when worn. The pin is very sturdy and in full working order. Fully cleaned and ready to wear!
