SOLD - Theo Fennell 18kt Gold Diamond Seal Brooch with Sapphire Eyes, c. 1970s
A collectable vintage brooch by British designer Theo Fennell, crafted in 18kt yellow and white gold, depicting a pair of seals in a lifelike and affectionate pose. The two seals are modelled lying closely side by side, with their bodies curving in unison—suggesting rest, bonding, or parental care. Their surfaces are fully pavé-set with round brilliant-cut diamonds, giving a sense of texture that mimics the natural sheen of a seal’s wet skin.

Each seal is accented with a pair of blue sapphire cabochon eyes, lending a sense of character and charm. The golden flippers, tails, and facial detailing contrast with the diamond setting to create a striking and well-balanced design. This is a rare example of Theo Fennell’s early sculptural animal jewellery from the 1970s, showcasing both craftsmanship and storytelling.
