He discovered a process of laminating layers of celluloid with various other materials, i.e. fabric, lace, straw etc. and from this Lea started designing jewellery and accessories. She began with buttons and moved on to brooches, necklaces, earrings and bracelets, as well as mirrors, combs and photo frames. Her designs include cat and dog brooches as well as other animal and birds.She ceased trading in 1981 due to competition from China but started again several years later. As well as releasing some of her vintage pieces she produces a few new designs each year. The latest ones are the Panda and 'Pussycat'. LEA STEIN jewellery has become highly collectable in countries all around the world. All the brooches I sell have the 'V' shaped pin on reverse signed 'LEA STEIN PARIS' unless otherwise stated. MARIE-CHRISTINE PAVONEMARIE-CHRISTINE PAVONE produces her whimsical jewellery from her workshop in Paris. They are made of Galalith, one of the oldest plastics, discovered in 1897. It cannot be moulded but each piece has to be sanded and carved by hand before being polished in a drum. They are then finished by hand-polishing and often handpainted details. Many of her designs are cat brooches which are actually based on cats she has known. Her other designs include dog, birds, animal and flower brooches. All of her pieces, unless specified in description, are hand signed on the reverse. |
