Van Cleef & Arpels 18kt Gold Lion Brooch, 1962

A highly collectable Van Cleef & Arpels brooch, crafted in 1962, depicting a wonderfully expressive lion in richly textured 18kt yellow gold. Part of the iconic Lion bouriff series, this piece captures the playful yet refined character for which Van Cleef is renowned. The lions face is accented with a diamond-set muzzle, emerald eyes, and an onyx nose, giving the brooch both charm and sophistication.

This is a standout example for collectors of Van Cleef & Arpels brooches, particularly those seeking character-driven mid-century designs with strong stylistic identity.
