A twist weave brooch by Meret Oppenheim

A work by Méret Elisabeth Oppenheim (6 October 1913 – 15 November 1985) in these two photos. Titled "Unterirdische Schleife"-("Underground Loop"), it is made of bronze.

Besides creating art objects and being a member of the Surrealist movement of the 1920s, she also famously appeared as a model for photographs by Man Ray, most notably a series of nude shots of her interacting with a printing press.
