Frog - Limited Edition 18k Gold Brooch
Bill Reid
1 3/8" x 1 1/8"
We have an 18k brooch from this limited edition released in 1971, numbered 78/100. These brooches often display two stamps on the underside of the frog's feet, a 14k stamp and an 18k stamp. The pins that Bill used were 14k while the brooch itself is solid 18k.
The Bill Reid original 22k gold frog pin was executed in 1971, using the repoussé technique. The original is now on permanent display at the University of British Columbia's Museum of Anthropology in Vancouver, BC.
