We encounter pieces of jewellery richly set with high-quality diamonds throughout the 19th century. It was not only after a farmer's boy found the large Eureka diamond weighing 21.25 ct on the banks of the Orange River in 1866 and diamonds began to be mined in open-cast mines in South Africa that such magnificent pieces were created. Even in the generations before, shining diamond jewellery was coveted and popular. The goldsmiths of the mid-19th century created designs in the shape of blossoms and flower branches. This brooch is a diamond jewellery piece that references the magnificent flower branch brooches of the 19th century. It sparkles bright white in the light of wonderful rose cut diamonds. Twenty-six diamonds are set in high-carat white gold and appear as the setting of a blossoming branch in yellow gold. The brooch was created after the Second World War, in the years around 1960. This is shown by the modern hallmarking, the use of white gold, which was still unknown in the 19th century, and the shape of the safety clasp. Last but not least, the use of a relatively large amount of gold in this brooch indicates that it was created at the end of the economic miracle era. It came to us here in Berlin.
