Antique Opal Brooch

$ 795.00

A jewel from the past! Dating from the early 1900s, this original art nouveau brooch boasts a fabulous opal at its center. The opal is genuine and has been faceted as an oval cabochon, with violet, green and yellow play-of-color, and an exceptional flash of vivid neon red. The opal is set within a bezel, accented with a length of twisted gold wire, and studded with three small round white pearls. The gems are framed by a triangular, flowing ribbon with textured details.

The brooch is 14 karat yellow gold with an acid finish, which gives the gold a soft texture and bright yellow gold.

The brooch measures just under one inch long. It features a traditional pin stem and simple catch.

How to wear a brooch: on your lapel, at the collar of your blouse, to fasten a silk scarf, on a velvet ribbon around your neck, or even fastened into your hair!
