An abstract vintage 1960s handmade copper enamel modernist platter/artwork by enamelist/metalsmith Jules Perrier of Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Perrier started making jewelry and enamel art in the mid 1950s, and his enamel artwork in particular are very distinctive and striking visually! An incredible abstract modernist design in such vivid colors and amazingly it is in near flawless condition especially given its age! The darker colored abstract design is raised slightly above the vivid orange background which adds texture to this outstanding design! Measures 9" diameter by about 1-1/8" high at the rim. Marked at back as shown, "Jules Perrier Quebec". As noted above this artwork is in excellent vintage condition.

A vivid vintage 1960s 70s handmade copper enamel abstract modernist Bird design plate/artwork by Marie-Ange Langlois of Quebec, Canada. Brilliant colors entirely handmade and striking modernist design! Looks like a bird to me, but you may see something else? Measures just under 7" diameter at 6-7/8" by 1-1/4" high at rim. Signed at back as shown, "Marie-Ange Langlois". I'm certain that this artist is from Quebec, but I haven't been able to find any information about her or her artwork yet, but I welcome any info about her. There are a couple very very small fleabites around the rim that aren't at all visible when displayed. This is a handmade item, and it's a mite irregular in shape which only adds to the charm in my opinion. Excellent vintage condition.

A superb vintage 1960s 70s handmade copper enamel abstract modernist brooch and earrings set by Hank Frugte of Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. Entirely handmade hand wrought copper enamel abstract design wearable art brooch and earrings set! Most likely a one of a kind set! Hank Frugte (d. 1990) and his wife Diny (1929-2024) were originally from the Netherlands, but emigrated to Canada just after WWII and settled in Edmonton, Alberta. They were already trained enamelists and artists who brought their talents and experience with them to Edmonton, and created amazing artworks throughout their careers! They also shared their knowledge and experience with other artists by teaching workshops and other educational endeavors in both Canada and the US. The brooch measures 2-3/8" tall by 1-5/8" wide. The earrings measure 1-1/8" by 3/4". Marked at back of the brooch as shown, "Hank Frugte Edmonton". There are some very small fleabites along the edges of the brooch and one of the earrings. These are not at all noticeable when worn, or really at all except with magnification. Excellent vintage condition.
