Edwardian Fancy Light Pinkish & Brown Diamond Hair Pin Brooch sapphire Again the atoms were gamboling

Again the atoms were gamboling before my eyes

and it's surrounded by a cluster of sapphires and dreamy pearls

and a Mont-Saint-Michel medallion

Their life cycle from a humble caterpillar to a chrysalis and finally a beautiful butterfly mirrors the journey of growth and transformation

Edwardian Fancy Light Pinkish & Brown Diamond Hair Pin Brooch sapphire Again the atoms were gambolingDATE: Edwardian, c. 1910 These three fancy diamonds are set within a brooch, but we love this modelled as a hair pin. Dating from the Edwardian period, the three old cut stones each display their own colour from fancy light pink to orangey brown. They come to a total weight of 0. 62 carats, and are set in fine millegrain within halos across the pin. Its backed in 15 karat gold with platinum settings and dates to circa 1910. Which way will you wear it?
