Such a rare little Art Deco find for not only the jewellery enthusiasts but automobile collectors also!

We are ‘car’ challenged .. but we’ve been kindly advised this vintage car is an Oldsmobile Model Z!

A huge shout out to Alex for his knowledge and expertise in identifying this rare vintage car! We couldn’t have done it with out you!.

  “The Oldsmobile Model Z was a prototype produced in 1908 with (at first) a 505 cubic inch motor.  Later produced with a 707 cubic inch motor”.

Interestingly to note this brooch IS also inscribed to the base with ’707’ - for the cubic inch motor.

Crafted from 12ct rose gold and set with an array of half seed Pearls, round faceted Peridot and a tiny round red garnet cabochon for the teeny coach light!

Impeccably made, finely detailed, with white gold accents to the wheels, little handbrake and steering wheel all visible.

Original C clasp and pin to the rear keeps this wonderful Art Deco piece firmly in place.
