Antique Gold Brooch with Miniature Portrait on Ivory

A sculptural and finely crafted Portuguese ring, executed in 800/1000 yellow gold, featuring two cabochon turquoise pearls nestled within an ornate basket-form setting. This architectural mounting elevates the gemstones above the finger in a deliberate, elegant arrangement, framed by a continuous border of 29 rose-cut diamonds. Each turquoise pearl displays a soft, natural hue and rounded form, while the surrounding diamonds catch the light with a gentle sparkle, typical of rose-cut stones. The design’s raised "basket" construction not only enhances visual depth but also evokes early 20th-century romanticism, reminiscent of Belle Époque and Edwardian stylistic influences.
