Condition Notes: A 17.00 x 13.00 x 7.75 mm turquoise cabochon displays a glossy, high polish surface that harmonizes beautifully with the cream colored enamel and bright 18k gold. Enamel remains well preserved overall, with two minor interruptions visible under magnification that slightly disrupt the continuity of the design to a sharp eye.

David Webb: Formed in 1946 by partners David Webb and Nina Silberstein, David Webb Inc. created colorful jewelry recognized for its bold, sculptural design. Webb drew inspiration from the work of Cartier, Seaman Schepps, Faberge and Verdura. His passion for color, texture, enamel, gems and unusual materials brought him to the forefront of jewelry design in the 1950s and 1960s. His fondness for nature and ancient cultures influenced his most famous motifs, stylized animals and flowers. David Webb created contemporary wearable gold sculptures until his death in 1975. He left behind a legacy as one of the pioneers of American jewelry design. David Webb Inc. continues to produce jewelry based upon original artwork and sketches, under new ownership.
