Victorian Opal and Pearl Brooch in Yellow Gold
This beautifully balanced brooch centres on a luminous oval opal, alive with soft flashes of pastel fire. It is flanked by two matching oval opals, each displaying delicate play-of-colour that shifts gently in the light. Between the stones sit vibrant green stones, adding a fresh contrast and a refined sparkle to the composition.
The scrolling openwork frame is crafted in warm gold and accented with lustrous seed pearls. The symmetrical design and combination of opal, green stones and pearl are characteristic of late Victorian taste, blending delicacy with subtle drama.
Elegant and eye-catching, this brooch is a wonderful example of antique craftsmanship and would make a distinctive addition to any fine jewellery collection.
