Description
An elegant silver brooch in the form of a dragonfly with open wings. The wings and lower body are decorated in stunning blue guilloche enamel, with a green upper body. The wings have detailed veining with black enamel. The eyes are also picked out in black and the segmented body and antennae add further detailing.
Dragonflies, butterflies and other insects were very popular themes for jewellery in late Victorian/Edwardian times and into the early 20th century. This lovely brooch is fully hallmarked and a good sized example. The pin is fastened with a 'C' clasp.
