<p>[QUOTE=&quot;reader, post: 513959, member: 255&quot;]Agree US Brutalism was later here than in Europe as both MCM and Brutalism were architectural terms and the jewelry followed the architecture.US MCM started in the 50s but the height of US Brutalism was 60s through 70s. MCM (Mid Century Modern) is IMO a style term related to a specific period (50s through 70s) where Brutalism is more&nbsp; a stylistic term and can be used for any period. The height of US Brutalism in jewelry and furniture IMO was the 70s although Brutalist work continues today and your piece is definitely Brutalist regardless of when it was made. Here’s one of my fave early Brutalist works from Casa Batlló (Gaudi) in Barcelona. No clue who the gal is-I just had to grab a picture of this. Built in 1904 so Brutalism has had a very long run. I love the style![ATTACH=full]166275[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
