tourbillon brooch

Tourbillon means "whirlwind" in French. In 1953, the spicy piece that caused a sensation during the heyday of elegance was reprinted by a master craftsman who inherited the craftsmanship of the time. The design becomes even more artistic with the swirling form and flowing chains that sway with the movement. This brooch is still active as a fashion spice in the 1950s.
