Antique Swan Brooch French Jewelry

Antique French brooch, high quality craftsmanship, enamel swan bird on a diamonds lake, reemace or cattail motifs and floral pattern. Fine three-dimensional work in 18 carat yellow gold, the diamonds are set in silver to render the true beauty of the precious stones. The brooch is set with no less than 66 rose cut diamonds.

The jewel in excellent condition, pin and security system work perfectly, the enamel presents some tiny minutes when looking very close; we decided to leave it that way to preserve this true piece of art.

19Th century jewellery and artists had used nature as inspiration for designs. Their interpretations of animals in jewels are based on an almost impressionistic view of the colours and lines in realistic detail. The French were undoubtedly unrivalled in the design of jewellery during this period with a deep understanding for the gems and materials used.

It is in French jewellery that the most stunning art nouveau motifs can be found. These 19th century realism jewelry in diamonds, of course, can be very expensive. With careful and imaginative taste, the flowers and swan act as a fascinating theme to link your choice of romantic, symbolic and above all, decorative jewel.
