Description

Historic seed pearl brooch in yellow gold 585 (stamped and guaranteed) in the shape of a flying swallow.

The brooch is elaborately set with seed pearls and a round faceted blueandnbsp;sapphire as a swallow's head. The swallow -andnbsp;wonderfully sculpted in detail- sits centrally on a crescent moon, with flowering branches to the side of the bird. On the back, the brooch has a well-functioning pin with safety slide.
The swallow, since ancient times the attribute of the goddess of love Aphrodite, is symbolic of freedom, hope and love. Especially in the 19th century, during the Victorian era, it was an extremely popular motif in the goldsmith's art.

This delightfully exquisite piece of jewelry was created around 1900 and is a ravishing companion to many different styles. A true favourite!

Dimensions of the brooch: 4.5 x 1.9 cm.
Diameter of the seed beads: 1,0 - 2,7 mm.
Diameter of the sapphire: approx. 2.0 mm.
Total weight: 5,0 gram.
Condition: Very nice historical condition, freshly cleaned, see photos.

You will receive the brooch in one of our high quality cases and with certificate of authenticity.
Please note: Vintage or antique jewelry are worn items that may show slight signs of wear due to their history.
