Description from the seller
Antique Edwardian Bar Brooch – 18-karat gold with diamonds – Circa 1910
Antique bar brooch from the Edwardian period, made around 1910 from 17-karat yellow gold with platinum details and set with natural diamonds.
The brooch features a long, symmetrical design with a refined openwork center. The graceful lines, geometric shapes, and fine diamond settings are characteristic of the Edwardian period.
At the center is an old-cut diamond, also called old mine brilliant cut or Bolshevik, with an estimated weight of about 0.08 carat and an approximate color and clarity of G/I and I1. In addition, the brooch is set with about 50 smaller diamonds in a senaille- and rose-cut, distributed across the openwork design.
The combination of yellow gold and platinum emphasizes the fine detailing and the distinctive form of the jewelry.
