In the 1960-70's Quebec seemed to produce more then just Brutalist jewelry designers, it also produced a large handful of talented Modernist Enamel Artists.  I believe when these enamel items were originally produced, they were more of a souvenir you would pick up on a trip to Montreal.  They have become highly collectable over the past few years being that they are easy to wear and lend themselves to our modern aesthetics.
Key designers include; de Passille - Sylvestre, Robert Gervais, Jules Perrier, Claude Perrier, Monique Olivier, and Andre Gagneau.
