The Duette measures 3 1/2" long and about 2" wide. The Duette comes apart from the frame leaving 2 separate clip pins. The clasp and clips are all in excellent working condition. I have looked it over with a magnifying glass and found no missing stones. Their bodies are covered with tiny clear stones and their eyes are red ones. The center of each flowers is also a stone and the left end of the branch is stuffed with tiny stones. There are little details in the enameling such as one each toe and the petals of the flowers and even a little highlight on each beak. The feathers are shaded in blues, greens and gold, that gives it more depth. Duettes are hand painted so each may be a little different. This one was done very nicely. It is gold toned. The top of the left side of the frame is signed Coro Duette and the right has the patent number 1798867. This Patient number is from 1931. The pin is documented at this link http://jewelchat.com/collectDuettes.html . and in "Coro Jewelry a Collector's Guide" by Marcia "Sparkles" Brown page 130. The 1941 design is below. |
