Beau Sterling Silver Crown Brooch Orb and Cross Design 1940s–50s Vintage

A beautifully crafted piece of 1940s-1950s American sterling silver jewelry from one of Providence, Rhode Island's most respected makers — and a must-have for crown brooch collectors.

This solid sterling crown brooch is signed Beau Sterling on the reverse, the mark of Beaucraft Inc., a Providence maker prized by vintage jewelry collectors for quality construction and timeless design.

The crown is rendered .925 silver in three-dimensional relief, modeled closely on the classic orb-and-cross imperial crown — a domed body with a beaded band, sweeping arched supports, and a cross-topped orb at the apex.

Every detail is crisp and intentional. The silver has developed a natural patina that settles into the recessed areas and brings the sculptural design to life.

From an private crown brooch collection assembled over 40 years. Browse our shop to see more remarkable pieces from this one-of-a-kind assemblage.
