Additional Info
Here we have a very well made, antique, pin/brooch that was crafted in France from solid 18k gold and silver during the Victorian era. The brooch features a large beetle design that shows incredible detail and is neatly set with fine stones throughout. The beetles' wings are constructed from polished, custom cut, garnets that are well matched showing a deep, dark, red color bringing a truly rich look to this piece. The body of the beetle is then adorned with old rose cut diamonds in which brilliantly sparkle for a glamorous touch, while the eyes stand out with the vivid red color of the cabochon cut rubies. The remaining areas display high quality workmanship with its truly outstanding and realistic detail, including at the underside of the beetle in which is perfectly set on the gold stick that is elegantly adorned with a lovely cultured pearl at its top. This magnificent piece remains in excellent condition with patina intact, giving this brooch its wonderful rosy yellow gold appearance. It is secured with a pin along the back with a bypass closure, making this piece 100% ready to wear upon arrival. Enjoy!
