Sarah Coventry  |  Pins Brooches

Pretty, detailed roses on a cream background. I've only seen two of these pins. 1 3/8" tall.

Mosaic is one of the few designs Sarah Coventry made for both men and women. It is EXTREMELY RARE to find the buttons, and it is rare to find the full Mosaic set. Each clip earring is 7/8" in diameter, as is each cuff link and the stick pin. The pendant is 1" in diameter, while each button is 5/8" and the tie tac is 3/8". The buttons are on their original card, which states, "Hand painted glass buttons crafted exclusively for Sarah Coventry in West Germany." Mosaic always reminds me of old churches and stained glass windows. This is a great set for the collector.

Lovely, fluid script initial pin. 1 1/4" across.

Made of two interlocking octagons in two different plains, this pin is about 1 1/8" across. While the picture might make the pin look textured, it is actually smooth and shiny.

Big! flower heads are 1 1/2" across. The baroque pearl buttons are framed with wirework, and the loveley stem of the pin is done in brushed and shiny metal. As is common with this set, the pearls move SLIGHTLY and have light scratching. The pin is 3" long!

Small, Understated pin of three veined leaflets is echoed in the lever clip earrings. The pin is 1 1/2" by 1 1/4", and each earring is 5/8" long.

Ingenious combination pin-barette is elegantly understated. Textured, brushed leaves overlap on a shiny frame, and all is graced by a single pearl. 2 1/4" long. (One of the legs of the barette is sharpened, so that this can be worn as a pin.)

Classic and classy, this pin looks great on a suit jacket or sweater. The beautiful metalwork is in the light goldtone that several Coventry designs featured. 1 1/2" in diameter.

This fat little owl is the cutest thing! Look at all the detail: his cute little wings, his toes gripping the branch, and his studious look. The glasses go up and down. Wearing this pin is the easiest way to make people smile. About 1 1/4" tall.

A pretty pin that can go classy or casual. Notice the various textures and the fine wirework. 1 1/4" in diameter.

RARE Shiny goldtone 1 1/4" wide pin houses a gorgeous piece of art glass holding the colors of the rainbow. This design and its matching ring are reminiscent of Sarah Coventry's Harmony bracelet. Unmarked but sold to me as SarahCov Canada by a lady from Canada and also identified as "Rainbow" from SarahCov Canada by Kay Oshel on page 85 of her 2005 book _Jewelry from Sarah Coventry and Emmons_.

Cute metalwork elephant pin with upraised trunk for good luck. About 1 1/2" long.

Cute angel pin with lots of detail in the gleaming metalwork and sparkling rhinestones gracing the halo. About 2" long.

Sea Sprite seems to be inspired by the Far East. Parts of the curving metalwork appear to be hammered or crimped. About 2" in diameter.
