Vintage Hobe blue green aurora borealis dangle crystal gold tone brooch. This is marked Hobe in an oval (1958-1983). Hobe was founded in 1887 by Jacques Hobe, a goldsmith, in Paris. His goal was to use fine jewelry techniques, but with non precious materials. His pieces were geared towards the middle class and even some of the wealthy. Hobe’s pieces were often very colorful and glittering, especially those he made for celebrities.
