Victorian Diamond & Pearl Floral Brooch | c.1890 | 18K Gold & Silver
£2,650.00
A beautifully crafted Victorian floral brooch dating to the 1890s, fashioned in the classic silver-on-gold technique with silver settings over an 18K gold mount. Inspired by a bouquet of wildflowers, the design features two blooming flowers, graceful diamond-set leaves, and delicate pearl buds, embodying the romantic naturalism beloved during the late Victorian era.
The brooch is adorned with numerous natural antique rose-cut diamonds, each hand-cut to catch the light with a soft, lively sparkle. Three natural pearls crown the bouquet, while two larger pearls form the flower centers, adding warmth and elegance to the composition.
A particularly charming feature is its convertible construction, allowing the floral element to be detached, showcasing the sophisticated craftsmanship of the period. Elegant, feminine, and wonderfully detailed, this is a wearable work of art and a fine collector’s piece.
