A Gold and Pearl Floral Circlet Brooch
This English made late Victorian (circa 1890 - 1900) brooch of a circlet of flowers and leaves is made of 18 carat gold and features sixteen seed pearls. You will notice that each flower is slightly different, which indicates that they have been made by hand, as has the detailing on each petal. With its curling foliage and flowers, it is very Art Nouveau in style.
Private collection
The theme for “Looking Close on Friday” for the 28th of January is “round in a vertical photo”. I thought that this elegant brooch against a black velvet background was the perfect choice. I do hope that you like it, and that it makes you smile.
