Description
Vintage Israeli Eilat Turquoise & Pearl Brooch
This vintage Israeli Eilat turquoise and pearl brooch is a striking example of mid-20th-century jewellery craftsmanship.
It features a large central Eilat stone, surrounded by seed pearls and turquoise-coloured accent stones.
The design is bold, ornate, and richly detailed.
At the centre sits a polished Eilat stone cabochon.
Eilat stone is a distinctive copper-based gemstone traditionally associated with Israel.
It is known for its layered green and blue tones.
Each stone displays natural patterning.
Because of this, no two examples are identical.
Encircling the centre is a halo of small pearls.
These add contrast and softness.
Beyond this sits an outer ring of turquoise-coloured stones set into decorative metalwork.
As a result, the brooch has depth and strong visual presence.
Design and Materials
The brooch is constructed in a warm-toned metal, typical of Israeli jewellery from this period.
Intricate openwork detailing frames the stones.
This creates texture without overwhelming the central design.
Eilat stone has long been regarded as Israel’s national stone.
For this reason, jewellery incorporating it carries cultural and historical significance.
Brooches of this scale were often produced as statement pieces rather than everyday jewellery.
A traditional pin fitting is mounted to the reverse.
It opens and closes securely.
Therefore, the brooch fastens confidently to garments.
Wearability and Style
This vintage Israeli Eilat turquoise and pearl brooch is designed as a statement piece.
It works beautifully on coats, shawls, and formal jackets.
Likewise, it can be worn on scarves or displayed as part of a jewellery collection.
The rich green tones pair well with neutral fabrics.
They also complement black, cream, and deep blue.
Because of its size and detail, the brooch becomes the focal point of any outfit.
