Antique Dutch Diamond Brooch
An exquisite late 19th-century Dutch brooch, intricately set with over 100 rose-cut diamonds. The design centres around a large diamond measuring 6mm across, surrounded by a floral cluster of countless smaller stones, all enhancing its stunning presence. Each diamond is rubover set in silver with a foil-backing for enhanced sparkle.
The brooch is crafted in solid 14K yellow gold, with a thin layer of silver on the outer side, a technique often used to accentuate the brightness of the diamonds in the 18th and 19th centuries. The reverse is equally captivating, adorned with intricate floral engravings. A Dutch ‘leaf’ hallmark for 14K gold is present, affirming its quality and origin.
Measuring 3.2cm by 2.2cm and weighing a good 9.2 grams, this brooch is in superb condition, with all stones securely set and a well-functioning clasp. A remarkable piece of late 19th-century craftsmanship, rich in sparkle and history.
