Description

DATE: Edwardian, c.1910

An utterly stunning Edwardian period brooch fashioned in platinum with colourful plique-a-jour enamel work. It's set with old Euro diamonds - around 2 carats in total - and four vibrant emeralds. The enamelling changes colour outward from the centre, yellow becomes green then blue, and sits within a platinum lattice. The central diamond rests inside a halo of tulips, and four scrolled motifs radiate out from the centre. The craftsmanship is extremely fine, and the piece was likely made in France.
