Antique Victorian Diamond and Ruby 15K Gold Cockerel/Rooster/Chicken Brooch Pin
About the Item
We are delighted to offer this endearing and adorable antique Victorian brooch made c.1890.
The brooch is fitted in a period box and we will include this in the price of this listing.
This pin brooch is made in 15ct solid gold and features an intricate gem set cockerel head with old rose cut diamonds and a single ruby cabochon as its eye.
The head is made and set in solid silver to enhance the diamonds' white shine and lustre. Whilst undeniably sweet and dainty, the craftsmanship is superb and very impressive - due to its small size, it can only be further appreciated upon seeing how detailed each element is with a loupe or magnifying glass.
The accuracy and lifelike shape of the head despite its small size is a testament to the silversmithing and the manner in which all the gems have been set as if to replicate feathers is certainly an artistic virtuosity.
Furthermore, the wattle of the cockerel features a very small yet accenting orange/red enamel that contrasts and completes the entire look. A modestly sized yet outstanding piece of fine Victorian animal jewellery whether it be a special gift or for a personal addition.
This piece is for the discerning lover of intricate craftsmanship the perfect symbolistic jewellery for understated yet majestic strength, bravery, and honesty.
The brooch is unmarked as is common with articles of this period and as such we have tested it fully with results indicating 15ct solid gold.
All of our jewellery comes with a complimentary hard shell gift box with a velvet interior.

- Diamond & Chalcedony Flower Brooch Translucent 15k Gold Floral DesignLocated in London, GBWe are delighted to offer this delightfully artistic 15ct gold diamond and chalcedony bar brooch made c.1929. Captivating upon first glance, this brooch features a spectacular hand-carved chalcedony flower in the centre which has been meticulously engraved, presenting a life-like naturalistic design with a 'tiered' petal design. Furthermore, the gemstone's colour, opacity and fitness are wonderfully intricate with the carved flower being translucent and letting light through. Depending on the weather, lighting and what is worn behind, the chalcedony's lustre varies and the translucency truly captivates the delicate and lively attributes of floral and natural beauty. To complete the look, a sparkly single diamond is stylishly mounted in the centre of the petals, contrasting the overall colour and drawing the viewer's eyes to the centre of the brooch. The brooch setting is made from 15ct solid yellow gold and the pin is made from 9ct solid gold. An absolutely delightful piece of naturalistic and skillfully crafted jewellery ideal for the discerning gem lover, particularly of embellished stones. Further, upon wearing it with light and floral clothing, we believe it is a perfect match and a statement piece in its own right. The brooch is marked 15ct/9ct on their respective parts. This brooch comes with its original fitted box as photographed in the images. Size & Total Weight 5x1cm 2.47g /0.08 oz t Condition: Excellent vintage condition with no issues.
