Magnificent and majestic, sterling silver brooch by world-renowned, South African jewelry designer, Joe Calafato under his Candida jewelry line. His timeless, African iconography and aesthetic appreciation of African expressions of culturally traditional, African female beauty is once again evident in this beautiful brooch. Calafato is known the world over for his designs that have an engaging quality of compositions of African life. This is a masterfully designed portrayal of an African goddess wearing her regal crown. Her true beauty is revealed in the subtly of her face – the sparkle in her wide-eyed gaze, the fullness of her lips, the roundness of her cheeks. She is adorned with splendid, traditional African neck jewelry and colored drop-dangle earrings in blue, red and white enamel that draw the eye toward and frame her remarkable face.
