Diamond & Chalcedony Flower Brooch Translucent 15k Gold Floral Design
Located in London, GB
We are delighted to offer this delightfully artistic 15ct gold diamond and chalcedony bar brooch made c.1929. Captivating upon first glance, this brooch features a spectacular hand-carved chalcedony flower in the centre which has been meticulously engraved, presenting a life-like naturalistic design with a 'tiered' petal design. Furthermore, the gemstone's colour, opacity and fitness are wonderfully intricate with the carved flower being translucent and letting light through. Depending on the weather, lighting and what is worn behind, the chalcedony's lustre varies and the translucency truly captivates the delicate and lively attributes of floral and natural beauty. To complete the look, a sparkly single diamond is stylishly mounted in the centre of the petals, contrasting the overall colour and drawing the viewer's eyes to the centre of the brooch. The brooch setting is made from 15ct solid yellow gold and the pin is made from 9ct solid gold. An absolutely delightful piece of naturalistic and skillfully crafted jewellery ideal for the discerning gem lover, particularly of embellished stones. Further, upon wearing it with light and floral clothing, we believe it is a perfect match and a statement piece in its own right. The brooch is marked 15ct/9ct on their respective parts. This brooch comes with its original fitted box as photographed in the images. Size & Total Weight 5x1cm 2.47g /0.08 oz t Condition: Excellent vintage condition with no issues. Please refer to the photos for further details. *Please note: all other items are for display purposes only and this listing is for the garnet cabochon bracelet...

Antique and Vintage Brooches

Antique and vintage brooches, which are decorative jewels traditionally pinned to garments and used to fasten pieces of clothing together where needed, have seen increasing popularity in recent years.

Given their long history, brooches have expectedly taken on a variety of different shapes and forms over time, with jewelers turning to assorted methods of ornamentation for these accessories, including enameling and the integration of pearls and gemstones.

Cameo brooches that originated during the Victorian age are characterized by a shell carved in raised relief that feature portraits of a woman’s profile, while 19th-century micromosaic brooches, comprising innumerable individually placed glass fragments, sometimes feature miniature depictions of a pastoral scene in daily Roman life.

At one time, brooches were symbols of wealth, made primarily from the finest metals and showcasing exquisite precious gemstones. Today, these jewels are inclusive and universal, and you don’t have to travel very far to find an admirer of brooches. They can be richly geometric in form, such as the ornate diamond pins dating from the Art Deco era, or designer-specific, such as the celebrated naturalistic works created by Tiffany & Co., the milk glass and gold confections crafted by Trifari or handmade vintage Chanel brooches of silk or laminated sheer fabric.

Brooches are versatile and adaptable. These decorative accessories can be worn in your hair, on hats, scarves and on the lower point of V-neck clothing. Pin a dazzling brooch to the lapel of your blazer-and-tee combo or add a cluster of smaller pins to your overcoat. And while brooches have their place in “mourning jewelry,” in that a mourning brooch is representative of your connection to a lost loved one, they’re widely seen as romantic and symbolic of love, so much so that a hardcore brooch enthusiast might advocate for brooches to be worn over the heart.

Today, find a wide variety of antique and vintage brooches on 1stDibs, including gold brooches, sapphire brooches and more.
