This stunning, fine and impressive antique brooch has been crafted in 18ct yellow gold with a 12ct yellow gold setting.
The pierced decorated two-toned gold frame has been modelled in the form of a stylised stemmed pansy, accented with two leaves.
The centre of the pansy is ornamented with an impressive seed pearl, encircled by five yellow gold petals with textured decoration.
The central design is encircled by five larger irregularly shaped petals, each featuring an impressive gemstone; two pear faceted amethysts, two oval faceted smoky quartz and one impressive 3.01ct pear faceted citrine.
The border of each petal is further embellished with millegrain decoration and accented with gold ball motifs.
The 18ct gold stem and leaves are ornamented with fine textured decoration, replicating the organic features.
The brooch secures to the reverse with a 12ct gold hinged pin and safety clasp.
This gemstone and gold pansy brooch has been independently tested using state of the art technology (Niton XL2 Analyzer) and verified as 18 carat gold and 12 carat gold.
This impressive example of antique jewellery is supplied with an independent diamond grading report card.
