A graceful rose, glistening in the dew and not yet in bloom, entices our senses. Set all over with diamond roses, this silver on gold brooch presents the precious queen of flowers. Their adjacent leaves form a naturalistic arrangement. The wonderful sparkle of the 39 diamonds lends the brooch additional presence. Diamond jewelry in natural forms has accompanied the history of jewellery since the 18th century. The shapes and details have changed over time, with the workmanship becoming more delicate from generation to generation in parallel with the development of new goldsmithing and gem-setting techniques. In the case of this brooch, the workmanship and hallmarking reveal that it was created in the 19th century, probably around 1880 in the French capital Paris. The diamonds are set in patinated silver settings, typical of the period, to enhance their sparkle. At a time when white gold and platinum were not yet available, this was the usual procedure, as the individual shapes and sparkle of the individual gemstones are beautifully accentuated against a dark background. The back of the piece, on the other hand, is made of gold to prevent it from rubbing off on clothing and skin. The flower branch is a wonderful example of magnificent jewellery from the late 19th century. This precious piece of jewelry is still in excellent condition today. We were able to acquire it in London.
