Jean and Robert Rubel, more commonly referred to as Rubel Frères, were brothers born in Budapest, Hungary who brought their craftsmanship skills to Paris and then later New York City. Before launching their own firm, the brothers produced pieces for high jewelry houses including Van Cleef & Arpels and Ostertag. They crafted award winning pieces of jewelry for fashionable and important clients, including Daisy Fellowes. In 1943, the brothers established their own firm on Fifth Avenue, under the name John Rubel & Co. This brooch, Lot 216, from the mid-1940s, is an example of the elegant and dynamic jewels the brothers are remembered for making.PROPERTY OF A LADY
