The floral design is ornamented to the centre with a stunning four-claw set 2.10ct emerald-cut emerald.
The feature gemstone is encompassed with an array of eleven individually claw set Old European cut diamonds.
The flower's petals are comprised of emanating splayed lobed designs, ornamented with a total of one-hundred and one pavé set Old European cut diamonds.
The petal designs incorporate four curvilinear arrays accented with a total of twelve channel set baguette cut diamonds.
The tapering stem of the flower is embellished with five channel set baguette cut diamonds, completing the design.

Such magnificent multi-stone brooches with a multitude of large, high-quality diamonds are desirable; this brooch is the finest example you could hope to acquire.
"Rather than regarding inclusions in coloured stones as harmful, in small sizes and numbers that do not in any way detract from their beauty, they should be regarded as adding to desirability, for they provide identifying characteristics."
