If you’re considering selling a Kutchinsky brooch, Dawsons offers specialist expertise in one of Britain’s most distinctive jewellery houses of the 20th century. Brooches by Kutchinsky are celebrated for their sculptural forms, rich gold textures, and confident use of colour — making them highly sought after by collectors of bold, design-led jewellery.
Often conceived as statement pieces, Kutchinsky brooches blur the line between jewellery and miniature sculpture, appealing to buyers who value originality as much as craftsmanship. There's never been a better time to sell Kutchinsky jewellery.
Kutchinsky approached brooch design with remarkable freedom. Unrestricted by wearability in the traditional sense, these pieces often feature exaggerated scale, layered construction, and dramatic surface detail.
Collectors are particularly drawn to:
Sculptural gold brooches with textured or bark finishes
Designs set with vivid gemstones such as citrine, amethyst, aquamarine, tourmaline, and diamonds
Nature-inspired or abstract forms
Strong mid-century and 1970s examples
It’s this unmistakable design language that gives Kutchinsky brooches such presence in the secondary market.
The value of a Kutchinsky brooch is shaped by design period, materials, gemstone quality, gold weight, and condition, with originality and visual impact often playing a decisive role. While intrinsic value matters, it is the design and execution that typically drives collector interest.
