Curiously timeless
Stunning Victorian 18k gold Dove Rose Arrow Enamel Brooch
The listing is updated for J, adding the conversion fees to add a bale on the brooch.
For sale a museum quality French antique enameled brooch, featuring the most romantic symbols of love, faith and devotion: a beautiful white dove with a rose flower crown and an arrow. There is also a drum and a trumpet on the back ground. The whole enameled panel is very gentle with the use of the various colors such as pink, bordeaux and gold. It must be one of the most romantic ways we’ve seen to declare love and loyalty.
The scene is realized with a great attention to detail since each piece is painted with a different combination of tones and shades. It has two refined golden circles; each, once again, is worked differently to show two distinct golden patterns. The back of the brooch is crafted with the equally very beautiful guilloche motifs.
Between the two layers, a very eye-catching black and white wave enameled pattern balances the overall tone and adds extra refinement.
It is truly a museum quality, sentimental and romantic historical piece! It will make a very special gift to offer or to receive.
