Vintage Signed Hobe Gold Jewelry Cat Brooch

Vintage Hobe Cat Brooch in great condition. I believe this is rare as I have not seen another Hobe Gold Cat Brooch. Hobé jewelry was produced in the 1940s. The jewelry from this period was all made in sterling silver. Some pieces were embellished with gold-plating and/or colored stones. In the 1950s, the company’s designs followed the trend for more glamour. Their standards for original designs, high-quality materials and excellent construction continued. Sold in up-scale department stores and boutiques, Hobé jewelry was marketed under the slogan “Jewels of Legendary Splendor”. Stars of the stage and screen wore these creations.
