Senior vice-president and creative director of Assael, Peggy Grosz quoted in the June 2024 issue of Professional Jeweler magazine. Brooch the Subject.

“I have long felt there was an overabundance of brooches in proportion to demand. I also feel that this is a result of designs that people want to come to fruition, but they don’t work as earrings or rings. The seemingly logical thing to do is to put a pin mechanism behind a piece. Every five to seven years, fashion editors proclaim: ‘The brooch is back’. This is the first time that I am feeling that brooches are truly relevant… so I’ve begun designing them,” says Grosz.
