Mistick Krewe of Comus 1908 Mardi Gras Art Nouveau 14K Gold and Enamel Goddess Brooch/Pin. Founded in 1857 by a group of New Orleans businessmen, the Mystick Crewe of Comus is the oldest, most exclusive, and considered to be the founder of New Orleans’ Mardi Gras known today. Prior to it’s founding, Mardi Gras was a rowdy, sometimes violent street party. The Mistick Krewe of Comus brought floats, marching bands, and torchbearers to light the way. As part of this new growth came themes, balls, royal courts, and other institutes of the celebration. In 1908 the selected theme was “Gods & Goddesses”. For this year the Mistick Krewe of Comus bestowed its gala guests with this beautiful 14K gold and enamel brooch of a Grecian Goddess crafted in the elegant Art Nouveau style of the day. She has fair skin with rosy highlights, is adorned with the traditional toga and Grecian-style crown, and has an overall iridescent glow. The brooch is approximately one inch in size and is in very good antique condition with only minimal signs of enamel and plating wear contained to the tip of her nose and the top of her head. Neither of which impedes its wearability or is distracting to the observer. She would be a treasured addition to any fine jewelry collection.
