Antique Mid-19th Century French Silver & 18ct Gold Diamond

Floral Spray Brooch

A beautifully preserved antique brooch crafted in France during the mid-19th century. Fashioned in finely detailed silver and 18ct yellow gold, this exquisite piece is designed as a floral spray and set with a dazzling array of natural rose-cut and old mine-cut diamonds.

The brooch features:

• Twenty-four illusion-set rose-cut diamonds, approximately 0.03ct each

• Three larger old mine-cut diamonds, adding visual depth and antique sparkle

• A secure gold pin and sleeve catch, typical of the era

• Subtle French styling and refined hand-finishing throughout

These diamonds, all hand-cut, exhibit the distinctive brilliance and irregular charm characteristic of 18th–19th-century craftsmanship. Rose and mine cuts were highly sought-after at the time, praised for their soft, romantic glow under candlelight.
