Brooches with brightly colored flowers, whether as a bouquet or a densely filled flower basket, can be found in many eras of jewelry history. Flowers simply lend themselves to being recreated from colorful gemstones, allowing them to bloom for eternity. This brooch is a particularly colorful and bright example of this type. An elegant white gold basket is richly filled with flowers. Four large blossoms form a row above the rim of the basket. On the left is a blossom of citrines, followed by a blossom of pink tourmalines. This is followed by a flower of garnet and a flower of aquamarine. Further gemstones are set as leaves and buds all around, including two peridots, a blue zircon and more tourmalines and citrines. The magnificent abundance of the flower bouquet is subject to an elegant asymmetry. The color palette is broad in its colors, and almost abstract in its unusual beauty, but remains true to the natural model and yet does not detach itself from its fragrant role models. Their size is not too obtrusive, but present enough to attract admiring glances. The brooch was created in Great Britain around 1950. It came to us in a velvet case from the jeweler Hertz from Philadelphia in the USA.

Did you know that Elizabeth II of England wore a brooch in the shape of a basket of flowers whenever a new member of the family was born? The Queen often used her pieces of jewellery to carry meaning, and so the flower basket brooch in the colors of Great Britain was symbolic of the growth and prosperity of the House of Windsor.
