French Silver & Gold Belle Epoque Frog Brooch set with Rose Diamonds & Cabochon Ruby Eyes

644S
Rare Find
Written by Olly Gerrish

A darling silver and 18ct gold Novelty frog brooch that was made in France circa 1910. It is full of detail and good workmanship and has been set with graded with graduated rose diamonds on his body. His eyes have been set with cabochon rubies. It is silver on the front and gold on the reverse with an 18ct gold pin. Animal or Novelty brooches, as they are sometimes called, were very popular in the early 20th century and this little frog is a particularly good example.
