Handwrought by Temming Signed Copper Cat Brooch Pin Betty Martin Koop Rare Vtg
Rare Vintage Temming Piece designed by Betty and hand made by Martin Koop (Temming was Betty's maiden name) at the Temming Art Studio in Saranac River. A fascinating story and amazing rare brooch. This would have been made between 1944 and 1960s when they were making jewelry at their Art Studio. The brooch is vintage and a little piece of history all in one. Very nice pre-owned vintage condition. Measures approx. 2.5" long (at the longest area on each side) and 1.5" Tall at the tallest point (tip of tail).
If you are interested or you purchase this, make sure to read the story behind the artists - you can google history of Temming Art Studio Saranac River NY. I would add the link here to the story but I don't believe links are allowed here. I got lost in the history of this and was very tempted to keep this.
