A finely executed medallion brooch, most likely crafted in gilt silver, distinguished by its delicate engraved ornament and restrained yet confident use of contrast. The circular face is centred with a stylised blooming rosette with subtly contrasting petals, framed by finely worked radial motifs and a band of black champlevé enamel that enhances the graphic clarity of the design. Guilloché engraving along the outer edge adds further refinement, while the thin, lightweight construction allows the piece to sit elegantly close to the garment. A refined example of late-19th-century dress jewellery, skillfully balancing engraving, enamel work, and surface treatment to create a richly detailed and beautifully hand-finished piece.
The brooch measures 2,5 cm in diameter and makes use of a C-Catch to fasten the pin on the back.
This brooch is in good Antique condition. No major visible dents or scratches. Some wear on the enamel and the darkened petals. The pin is very sturdy and in full working order. Otherwise fully cleaned and ready to wear!
