This Antique Jewelry item is an original Antique Victorian amethyst brooch with cultured pearls crafted in 14k yellow gold, weighing 18.1g and measuring 6.5cm long and 4cm wide. This authentic and lavishly detailed Victorian amethyst brooch of immaculate craftsmanship characterizes the fashionable and widely worn 1860's fashions, designed as a stylized ovular plaque, centered with a precious or semi-precious stone, often enhanced by flanking or surrounding pearls. This combination remained in vogue throughout the entire mid-and-late Victorian decades. This alluring Victorian amethyst Antique Pin exposes an outstanding, multiple prong-set 22.06ct oval-faceted amethyst measuring 21.06mm x 15.94mm, graded an enchanting 'pale-lilac' color and 'very good' clarity. This vivacious center-stone referred to as the 'Royal Gem' since ancient times, is surrounded by a meticulously chased, yellow gold perimeter surmounted by intricate scrolled profiles, enhanced by delicate gold beads. A duo of 'antique-cream' colored cultured pearls measuring approximately 4.72mm in diameter flanks the tenderly colored center stone, each multiple-prong set within an artfully chiseled perimeter. An eye-catching tassel composed of delicate cascading chains suspends 'en pampille' from the lower extremity of this captivating brooch, adjoined through a pair of yellow gold ringlets. This intriguing Victorian amethyst brooch is outfitted with the original delicately hinged pin and C-hook.
