18 Karat Gold, Carved Coral, Emerald & Pearl 'Bust' Brooch Pendant

About the Item

This rather unusual brooch pendant takes the form of a female bust and has been crafted from 18 karat yellow gold, carved coral, emeralds and pearls. The face, hair and head of the bust is carved from a single piece of pink coral which is topped with a gold crown set with emeralds and a pearl. The head also has drop earrings which are formed from gold and natural cultured pearls. The torso of the piece is finely engraved and has been set with six baguette cut emeralds and a pear shaped emerald, all rubover set. The shoulders of the bust are set with drilled natural cultured pearls which take the form of epaulettes. To the rear the piece has a hinged twin pin brooch fastener which is working well and is secure, along with a gold bale that has been added at some point after its original manufacture. A striking and unusual piece, it is undoubtedly one of a kind, and may even be designed to reference Queen Mary, who was a notable jewel collector. In lovely condition the piece does have one slight area of note, which is a slight bleed of solder where the bale has been added, however this is at the rear of the brooch pendant and is not noticeable from the front. A jewel that is sure to be a talking point whenever it is worn. Marked - engraved '750' for gold purity Measures - 6cm L x 4.5cm W Total weight of piece - 34.05 grams
