This is an Absolutely Fabulous High Quality
English Antique brooch or pin complete with its original celluloid cover and
bezel. They were popular so a memento of a deceased loved one, like a lock of
hair or picture, could be enclosed and worn close to the heart.
The pictures really do provide the best description –
the body of the brooch features beautiful, bar-pin shaping with a
medallion-like central motif. It is of yellow gold and adorned with applied
decoration of Rose Gold which frames the Gypsy-Set or star-set genuine diamond.
Its intricacy is amazing.
The back has its oval window with the original cover
and bezel in situ – VERY RARE. The
original pin is in excellent working order.
It has that silky smooth feel and the patina expected
of quality Antique English Rose & Yellow gold jewellery.
