Description
An unusual Edwardian silver brooch. Both the Victorians and Edwardians had a liking for insect jewellery and this lovely example, crafted in silver, is formed as a moth. The wings are set with tiny turquoise cabochons and the eyes are seed pearls. The main body is a fine brilliant cut blue topaz, held in a claw setting. The brooch is unmarked but tests as silver and the pin is secured by a 'c' clasp. A lovely antique piece, wearable today.
