Fabulous
Victorian Brooch featuring a central
Oval Garnet, surrounded by Seed Pearls
and an outer edging of a further 14 Foil Back Round
Cut Garnets.
Incredibly
unusual and very rare, this Mid Victorian piece is set in
unmarked High Carat Gold (typical of the
era) which is elaborately and expertly engraved.
The
reverse of the brooch is typically closed back, and in fabulous
condition. Even the foil backing which so often flakes over
time remains in perfect unused condition. If I'm being extremely
picky, there is a very tiny chip to one of the outer garnets
which is very difficult to spot and doesn't detract from the
piece. A really lovely, high quality piece in super condition.
It
measures just over 1" in width.
