Signed “A&S” on the reverse with a secure rollover clasp, the brooch measures approximately 2.6 cm across and showcases the brand’s signature high-quality plating and crystal work that has kept these pieces highly collectible.
Company History
Attwood and Sawyer was founded in 1956 in Porthcawl, Wales, by Horace Attwood and Mr Sawyer. The company became known for superior costume jewellery inspired by historic designs, including pieces modelled after the Duchess of Windsor’s collection. Their work appeared in Dallas and Dynasty, was sold in prestige retailers across the UK and Europe, and remains sought after by collectors today for its craftsmanship and durability.
Princess Diana
Lady Diana Spencer is known to have purchased an Attwood & Sawyer brooch, highlighting the brand’s appeal among stylish women of the era before she became Princess of Wales.
Crafted in the 1960s–1980s (frequently dated to the 1960s for this design), this signed piece offers timeless celestial charm, excellent sparkle, and lasting quality in classic British costume jewellery.
