Description
A vivid and beautifully made French portrait brooch from the 1880s, set in 14ct gold and enamelled with the image of a woman in a bonnet.
Her collar and hat are accented with two small old cut diamonds for a subtle touch of sparkle.
Measuring just 2.5cm across, it’s painted with exceptional care, a finely detailed miniature that reflects the romantic style of the late 19th century.
This piece showcases the highest calibre of French craftsmanship, with exquisite enamelwork that would have required immense precision and multiple firings.
Worn today on a lapel, or a scarf, it’s a very wearable piece that adds a touch of antique charm to any outfit.
