FAQs

Filigree is a delicate form of jewellery metalwork made with fine twisted threads, usually of gold or silver, curled into intricate artistic designs. Insect motifs, particularly butterflies, gained widespread popularity during the Victorian and Art Nouveau eras, symbolising transformation and nature.

Traditional filigree brooches are constructed using fine strands of sterling silver or high-purity silver wire. Craftsmen bend, twist, and solder these wire threads into a structural outer frame to create detailed, lace-like openwork patterns.

Authentic pieces feature microscopic hand-soldered joints, fine silver wire composition, and natural oxidisation within the recessed areas. Hallmarks or makers marks are occasionally stamped on the pin stem, clasp, or reverse frame to indicate silver purity.

A silver filigree brooch can be pinned to a coat lapel, a silk scarf, or a fabric handbag to add texture and detail. It can also be worn as an accent on a hat band or attached to a structured blazer.

Due to the delicate openwork structure, clean filigree gently using a soft-bristled brush and mild soapy water, avoiding harsh chemical dips. Store the brooch in a lined jewellery box or anti-tarnish pouch away from excess humidity.
