Vintage Butler & Wilson Crystal Leopard Head Brooch, 1980s

Product Information

Acquire a piece of costume jewellery history with this striking example of 1980s 'Big Cat' couture.

This Butler & Wilson leopard head small brooch/clutch pin is a miniature masterpiece. Sourced from a private collection, it embodies the bold, high-glamour aesthetic that Nicky Butler and Simon Wilson made world-famous during the late 20th century.

The detailed gold-tone leopard head, captured in a classic pose, is lavishly encrusted with  brilliant-cut clear and jet-black crystals, meticulously pavé-set to evoke the texture of spotted fur.  

The brooch bears the early B & W backstamp on a circular plaque.

In very good vintage condition, it fastens securely with a single-post pin with butterfly back.

    Dimensions: 1.3 x 2.3 cm | 0.5 x 0.9 inches

    Supplied in Butler & Wilson branded box.

     

    Created in 1969, Butler & Wilson began selling antique jewellery in the Antiquarius market, Chelsea and has come to define bold, glamorous crystal costume jewellery. British Vogue says that their ability to change with the times and fashion throughout the years has made Butler and Wilson 'Costume royalty'.
