A finely executed German Victorian bar brooch crafted from gold-plated brass, arranged as a symmetrical openwork panel, its layered design built upon a long beaded frame and overlaid with three lozenge-shaped elements. The two outer lozenges feature applied four-petalled rosettes, while the smaller central lozenge is flanked by curling foliate motifs, together accented by five delicate seed pearls of subtly varying sizes. The raised appliqués and open framework create a rich sense of depth, balancing the strong geometric arrangement with softer botanical ornament. the brooch captures the typically layered construction and structural Historicist decoration characteristic of German jewellery during the 1880s.
The brooch measures 4,9 cm long x 1,2 cm wide. and makes use of a C-Catch to fasten the pin on the back.
This brooch is in very good Antique condition! No major visible dents or scratches. Some wear on the gold-plating which is barely noticeable when worn. The pin is very sturdy and in full working order. Fully cleaned and ready to wear!
