This is an enamel brooch made by Quebec jewelry artisans Micheline de Passille and Yves Sylvestre.

The piece features an abstract modernist representation of a nude lady in gold toned metal against a blue enamel background. The back of the brooch is stamped "de Passille Sylvestre". The brooch measures 2 3/8" by 1 7/8". It is in very good condition with no pronounced wear or other defect.

Quebec produced some very good jewelry artisans during the 60s and 70s, with de Passille and Sylvestre considered amongst the best.....this is a wonderful enameled brooch...
