Written by Olly Gerrish

An unusual 15ct gold brooch that was made circa 1900-1910 and retailed by Murrle Bennett and Company in Regent’s Street. London. Murrle, Bennett and Company was a wholesale jewellers established in London in 1884 by Ernst Mürrle and J B Bennett. They sold the jewellery fashions of the time and imported many pieces by Theodor Farhner from Pfortzeim in Germany. This is a particularly pretty brooch and has been set with three opals with a small natural split pearl in the centre of the flower. It is typical of the Art Nouveau period with its sinuous plant form design. It has a secure roll over catch and a safety chain for extra security
