Garnets from Bohemia are among the classic pieces of jewellery. As so-called "carbuncle stones", they were already attributed magical powers in the Middle Ages and appear in the literature of the time as "Bohemian fire dragons". In the years around 1800, however, they fell out of fashion - only to return with all the more verve at the end of the century. This brooch dates from this period. It is set with sparkling Bohemian garnets of the highest quality. The stones have a beautiful, rich, dark red color. The stones are arranged in two superimposed layers and form three flowers that are staggered in size towards the center. The brooch is in very good condition. We were able to acquire it here in Berlin from the estate of a jeweler.
