A Grand Victorian brooch, circa 1870, designed as a diamond-set leaf within a circular frame. The red gold body, silver details and openwork construction give the jewel both depth and lightness, while the old brilliant cut diamonds, rose cut diamonds and senailles create a lively, irregular shimmer. Naturalistic yet substantial, it reflects the taste of the period for botanical forms with a sense of richness, movement and quiet sentiment.
