Edwardian Silver and Gold Pink Sapphire and Diamond Insect Brooch

About the Item

The body of the brooch is intricately modelled with openwork wings and a highly detailed form, pavé-set with 53 round brilliant-cut diamonds, estimated total weight approximately 1.10 carats, of VS2–SI1 clarity and G–H colour. At the centre sits a richly hued oval-cut pink sapphire, estimated at approximately 0.75 carats, displaying excellent saturation and a vivid rose-pink tone. The sapphire is securely claw-set in a traditional rub-over mount, typical of antique design. The brooch is fitted with a sturdy hinged pin and C-clasp to the reverse and shows hand-pierced settings to support the stones, finished with an open gallery to enhance brilliance. Weight: 8.90 grams Dimensions: 4.4 cm wide x 3.5 cm high Condition: Excellent antique condition with minimal wear; all stones are intact and secure.
