Bidspirit auction | Victorian Brooch Set with Numerous


Victorian Brooch Set with Numerous Garnet and Amber Center - A large lozenge-shaped brooch crafted from a dark metal, appearing to be base metal or a low-grade silver alloy, exhibiting heavy tarnish and brassy undertones on the reverse. The piece is densely set in an antique style with numerous red stones, which appear to be garnets or garnet simulants. The design features structured borders and clusters of medium to large rose-cut stones, interspersed with dozens of tiny faceted red stones filling the background. The central focal point is highlighted by one distinct, faceted orange or amber-colored stone. The reverse features an open-backed construction with stylized radiating metalwork visible beneath the settings. The closure consists of a simple hinged pin stem secured by a C-clasp. No hallmarks, maker’s marks, or purity stamps are visible.
