Until not too long ago, brooches were considered indispensable pieces of jewellery. Around 1950, no lady would have left the house without a brooch, because without one, her outfit was not complete. How and where the brooch was worn on an outfit changed in accordance with the fashions of the time. C. 1900, the so-called “collar brooch” was popular; it was worn on the front of the blouse, roughly at the level of the top button on high-necked garments. The piece of jewellery shown here is also such a collar brooch. The gold used is a reddish alloy, and three beautiful opals weighing a total of about 1.50 ct, along with shimmering small natural pearls, make this piece a typical example of its kind. The opals are arranged in the shape of a cloverleaf and set within an airily curved cartouche resting on a stem. Both decorative elements are bordered with small pearls. Of course, these days the brooch no longer has to be worn on the collar: it also makes for a wonderful, golden-shimmering focal point on a lapel, a scarf, or a coat!
