Here today for your consideration we have this superb early Victorian solid 18ct yellow gold gemstone and enamel brooch, c-1850. The brooch features an outer ring of blue guilloche enamel studded with ten (10) platinum-set rose cut diamonds. The inner body of the brooch features beautifully crafted plique-a-jour white enamel supporting a foil-backed cushion cut topaz. The quality is very good in both design and execution. Condition is good used, with a few hairlines to the enamel and a very small chip to the topaz (both visible under a jewellers loupe only). The pin holds good tension within the catch, with the piece without hallmark (tested and guaranteed 18ct gold throughout; pin steel). A most beautiful mid 19th century solid gold brooch for the collection.
The brooch measures 27mm x 20mm across the face with the topaz measuring 9mm square and having an estimated weight of 3.16cts. Unpacked, it weighs in at 7.33gms.
