This antique Victorian memorial brooch is a miniature portrait crafted in and stamped 18k yellow gold, weighing 9.5g and measuring 35mm long, 35mm wide and 6mm deep. Inspired by the late Victorian Romanticism, this delicate brooch, most likely a family heirloom of sentimental significance and of Austrian artisanship is a memorial brooch depicting the photographic reproduction of a painting of a Victorian couple in period attire. Mounted in an ovular setting with skillfully chased and mille grained rim, this miniature portrait is mounted in asymmetrical arrangement common during mid-Victorian era within a circular frame, surrounded by decorative textured gold. An immaculately rendered twisted-rope motif perimeter enhances the aesthetic grace of this dainty miniature brooch featuring the original pin and tubular clasp, the Austrian hallmark depicting the head of a woman, and the serial number '62579' on reverse.
