Vintage Alexander Ritchie Silver Penannular Brooch Pin

This Alexander Ritchie penannular silver brooch was crafted in England in 1935 and is a testament to the skilled artistry of its maker. Renowned for his Celtic-inspired designs, Ritchie's jewels seamlessly blended traditional motifs with a modern touch. The pennanular brooch was one of a circular shape and open-ended design made to evoke a sense of continuity and unity. The intricate knot-work and detailed craftsmanship showcase Ritchie's dedication to preserving and revitalizing ancient Celtic artistry. Each curve and line tells a story of heritage and craftsmanship, making this brooch not just a piece of jewelry but a tangible link to the past.

This silver engraved penannular brooch was created by famed silversmith Alexander Ritchie. Hallmarked “A.R.” for the maker, an anchor for Birmingham, a passant lion for England, it was made in 1935 as represented by the date letter “L” and is further marked with “IONA” and “ICA” (for Iona Celtic Art, Ritchies trading name). It measures 58.8mm by 52.7 mm weighs 28.2.

This fabulous creation stands as a timeless representation of Ritchie's artistic legacy.
