Striking vintage modernist brooch by Alicia of Taxco, Mexico, crafted in high-purity 950 silver. This sculptural statement pin features a bold abstract / biomorphic silhouette with sweeping curves, open negative space, and a clean high-polish silver finish. The design has a wonderful 1980s modernist feel—minimal, fluid, and architectural, yet very wearable.

A dramatic piece for a blazer lapel, leather jacket, scarf, coat, or dress. The brooch reads beautifully as wearable sculpture, with a crisp graphic presence that stands out against black, navy, camel, or ivory.
