William Spratling Continental Solidarity Brooch in Sterling Silver

This rare and historically important Taxco silver jewelry piece by William Spratling is known as the Continental Solidarity brooch. Created in 1942 to symbolize unity among the Americas during World War II and to raise funds for the Red Cross, it features gilded silver accents on the Northern Hemisphere for added contrast. This mid-century modern design is well-documented in Spratling Silver: A Field Guide by Phyllis Goddard, William Spratling and The Mexican Silver Renaissance by Penny Morrill, and Silver Jewelry Design by Nancy Schiffer. With its bold imagery of two hands joined across continents, this vintage silver jewelry treasure exemplifies Spratling’s commitment to artistry, cultural symbolism, and exceptional craftsmanship. A wonderful addition for collectors of Mexican silver jewelry, it also represents a timeless piece of investment silver jewelry and a thoughtful gift for jewelry collectors seeking truly unique silver jewelry.
