Vintage Yves Saint Laurent Rare Gold Seahorse Brooch YSL

A simple outfit can be elevated with the touch of the right accessory. While Yves Saint Laurent’s garments were innovative in their own right, his accessory and jewelry designs throughout the years demonstrate his attention to detail and versatile ability as a designer.

Made from a luxurious Parisian gold crafted by the atelier of Robert Goossens, this rare YSL brooch has been crafted in the shape of a seahorse. The gold has been molded to reflect the texture of the seahorse which allows for a variation of luster as the light hits the gold.

The eye of the seahorse is a sea blue cabochon that adds just a touch of contrast to the piece. Though small, this detailed and crafted brooch is an easy addition to add a playful elegance into almost any outfit you desire.

Measurements:

Length: 2 1/4 inches

Width: 1 1/4 inches at widest point

The brooch fastens with a clasped pin on the back. On the inside of the brooch, the YSL logo can be found. In excellent condition, high-quality vintage pieces like this are yours to live in and love while increasing in value every year. It’s never too soon to start collecting them, as an investment in your wardrobe—and in yourself.
