18K Gold Rudy Cherny Bird With Multi-Color Gemstones Ladies Brooch

This brooch features a finely made bird with a long tail looking at its nest. There are an array of pearls, sapphires, emeralds, rubies, and tiger’s eye gemstones. It weighs 12.3 grams and is 2.5” long.

This item is guaranteed to be a Rudy Cherny design. It is hallmarked “18K CHERNY” and was tested to ensure its authenticity.

Rudy Cherny was born in Germany and emigrated to Australia in the late 1930s where he met fellow expat John Altmann. In 1948 they founded Altmann + Cherney. Together they built a successful business as gem cutters, gem merchants, and jewelry manufacturers. It eventually became a family business as their children followed in their footsteps.
