Description

This gorgeous piece showcases a high domed garnet cabochon framed in a double halo of twinkling wine coloured crown rose-cut garnets. A splendidly gothic addition to any outfit!

The garnets are set into "garnet gold" - a description used to describe a very low carat gold or gilded base metal typically used in Victorian garnet jewellery.

The brooch is in good antique condition; one of the tiny central claws is missing and there is a tiny surface flaw in the cabochon but these are only really visible under strong magnification and not perceptible to the naked eye.

Size: 2 x 2.5cm.

Weight: 6.0g.

FREE INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING!

FAQs

Victorian garnet cluster pieces typically feature deeply saturated red pyrope or almandine garnets, often set in dense multi-tiered arrangements surrounding a larger central stone, popularised during the mid-to-late 19th century.

These items were predominantly constructed using low-carat gold, pinchbeck, or gilded base metals, with gemstones securely held in closed-back foil-lined settings or low-profile collet mounts typical of the period.

Authentication relies on examining the C-clasps, integrated pin stems that extend beyond the body, hand-cut stone facets, closed-back settings, and signs of genuine age-related oxidisation on the metalwork.

An antique brooch can be pinned to the lapel of a tailored blazer, fastened at the neckline of a minimalist blouse, or used to secure a structured scarf for a sophisticated focal point.

Preservation requires avoiding ultrasonic cleaners and chemical dips due to the historic closed-back settings and foil backing; instead, items should be wiped gently with a dry, soft microfibre cloth.
