This 15k brooch is English, circa 1850. These brooches are rare to find in silver, and even rarer in gold. It has rock crystals that are foiled to create the colors of amethyst, citrine and garnet. The body is entirely hand made and beautifully detailed. The beetle illuminates as light passes through the crystals and is dramatic when worn on the shoulder or lapel. It measures 1 3/4 long x 1 1/4 across. The reverse has all original mounts. The gold has a rich patina and is in excellent condition. ...click for details

This coral necklace is Victorian. The three strands of natural coral have small oval beads that have faceted crystals in the center. The circa 1830 clasp is lovely as well, and has perfectly matched natural split pearls surrounding a compartment housing finely braided hair. The clasp is so finely designed it would look great with the clasp worn on the side, rather than in the back of the neck. The necklace measures 16.5 inches as the shortest length. The coral is a beautiful salmon color and ...click for details
