About the Item

A rare and enchanting example of early 20th-century craftsmanship, this antique brooch has a fine and delicate design with timeless elegance. The top is finely crafted in the shape of a bow, the piece captures the romantic sensibilities typical of the Edwardian or late Belle Époque era. The bow motif is artfully set with a central cultured pearl measuring approximately 4.6 mm in diameter, exuding a soft, creamy luster. Just beneath the pearl lies a sparkling Old European cut diamond, estimated at 0.06 carats, which serves as the visual anchor of the brooch and is surrounded by an array of glittering rose-cut diamonds. These vintage diamond cuts, known for their subtle shimmer and antique charm, are carefully pavé-set into white gold, highlighting the delicate contours of the ribbon design. Suspended elegantly from the bow is a cabochon-cut moonstone, shaped into a graceful teardrop form. This gemstone exhibits a beautiful soft, glowing light that appears to move within the stone, giving the brooch a mystical and ethereal quality. The moonstone is bezel-set in a polished white gold frame, ensuring both security and a seamless visual flow. This brooch is not only a piece of jewelry but a work of art, evoking a bygone era of grace and sophistication. Whether worn as a statement on a lapel, scarf, or evening gown, or treasured as part of a fine jewelry collection, it is sure to captivate with its beauty and craftsmanship.
