Matilda "Matl" Poulat Silver Frame set with Semi-Precious Stones M2771

So fantastic as to almost qualify as surrealist. It is certainly magical. Measures  2 1/2" x 3 1/4".

Educated as an artist and designer, Matilda Poulat of Mexico City, better known as Matl, turned her talented hands to jewelry making in 1934. Her pieces are quite unique, baroque forms with delicate textured detailing that took hours of chasing, the pieces often channel set with a multitude of tiny coral and turquoise stones. Her work is probably the most intricate that the Mexican Silver Renaissance has produced and is often beautiful.
