About the Item

Here we have a Carrera y Carrera "Leda and the Swan" brooch with many white VS diamonds, rubies, and the most incredible detail I've seen on any brooch before! Another very high end designer site has this piece listed for $58,600. They describe it as containing 7.87ctw and while I am not claiming a specific weight, according to my calculations, it looks correct. I'm not sure what a retail price on this piece would have been, but I suspect six figures. More details: Measurements: ~2 3/8" tall, 1 3/4" wide, and 7/8" deep Stones: super white and clear VS diamonds, and small red rubies. Metal: 18k Yellow and white gold, the yellow gold at some spots xrays even higher up to 21k gold. Weight: 48.3 grams Condition: overall very good used condition, there was a small channel repair done to the crown which can be seen when examined very closely.
