Lot description
Silberanhänger mit Opal. Ende 1920s.

Wietek 402. With the signature stamp on the reverse. Diameter: 5.6 cm (2.2 in).

• Very symbolic form in the artist's oeuvre: sun and moon as cosmic signals are characteristic motifs in his creation of the 1920s.
• Formerly in possession of the artist's wife.
• Among the "Brücke" artists, Schmidt-Rottluff created the most experimental and aesthetically most dense body of jewelry pieces.
The work is documented in the archive of the Karl and Emy Schmidt-Rottluff Foundation Berlin.
