0.43ct Ruby and Diamond, 18ct Yellow Gold 'Insect' Brooch - Vintage Circa 1990

This fine and impressive vintage insect brooch has been crafted in 18ct yellow gold.

The brooch has been crafted in the form of a three dimensional insect.

The thorax of the insect is ornamented with a four claw set oval cut ruby.

The forewings, closed over the abdomen, are each embellished with three graduated pavé set round cut rubies, displayed alternately between two pavé set eight-cut diamonds.

The body of the insect is accented with a subtle millegrain decoration.

The brooch secures to the reverse with a hinged pin and clasp, and is hallmarked to the underside of a foot with the 18ct gold fineness mark (750).

This impressive vintage gemstone brooch is supplied with an IDGL diamond grading report card.

Images do not always reflect the true colour and brilliance of gemstones and diamonds. The video however provides a truer representation of the actual colour and showcases each stone.
