About the Item

An antique diamond, silver, and yellow gold brooch, comprising forty-six old (Peruzzi) cut diamonds of various shapes and sizes, in silver and 15 karat yellow gold. My favourite thing about this Antique Silver and Yellow Gold Diamond Spray Brooch, is the remarkable array of diamonds. What’s yours? Perhaps the beautiful design? Or the contrast of silver and gold? A beautiful floral spray brooch, hailing from the Victorian era. Diamond spray brooches were popular throughout the Victorian era, and this delightful example is what we would refer to as a ‘grannies diamonds’ piece, where gemstones from older/inherited pieces of jewellery would be re-worked into a piece (or pieces) of jewellery which were more fashionable. This brooch is set with an arresting array of Peruzzi cut diamonds, which are scarce to see, most having been cut in the 1600s and 1700s, and often later re-cut into more modern arrangements. Peruzzi cut diamonds are recognised by their mostly square shape, with facets that create a cross shape in the diamond, created by a third row of facets to the crown of the diamond. This is the most Peruzzi cut diamonds I have ever seen total, let alone on one piece of jewellery! It really is quite something! The brooch is centred around a daisy cluster, sporting 7 diamonds in a closed back setting, a component likely taken from a Georgian jewel, and retained in its original pinched setting. Below, sinuous, curling leaves are set with diamonds, where large, elongated cushion shape Peruzzi cut diamonds steal the show. A 5-petalled flower and single diamond bud extend from the lower section. Above, a sprig with 3 leaves unfurls, and a blooming flower, set with another large Peruzzi cut diamond sprouts below. The diamonds are bright, white, sparkly, and well-matched with one another. The diamonds are of quite exceptional clarity and colour, for stones of around 300 years old. The diamonds are held within silver settings and backed in yellow gold. The brooch is complete with yellow gold hinged pin and C-shaped catch. The brooch is in good condition, there are some areas of old solder, but these may be original to the piece. Wear and tear acquiescent with age. The brooch measures 44mm long, 24.5mm wide, and 8mm deep (excluding pin and fittings).
