A NOVELTY BROOCH BY KUTCHINSKY, 1969
Designed as a fluffy duck, the eyes set with round cabochon emeralds, the beak and feet with orange enamelling, mounted in 18K gold, signed Kutchinsky, English hallmarks 1969, in maker's case, length 5.2cm
A family business established in London in 1893, Kutchinsky is well known for its flamboyant and outlandish designs during the 1940s and 50s. The family, who had previously served as jewellers to the court of Ludwig of Bavaria, fled their home country of Poland, before arriving and settling in East London.
Similar to the French house Mauboussin, Kutchinsky embraced the spirit of the post-war era producing lavish pieces heavily adorned with diamonds and brightly coloured gems. The brand is particularly discernible for its slightly wacky ornithological figures, usually styled in 18 carat gold, and exemplified by this delightful lot.
