Edwardian Silver, Silver Gilt, Marcasite & Paste Giardinetti Brooch

944S
280 Admirers
Written by Olly Gerrish

A “giardinetti”, meaning “little gardens”, brooch. From the late 17th century onwards this Italian word was applied to describe articles of jewellery, mainly rings and brooches, with an intricate floral openwork motif, consisting of colourful gems set in designs resembling flowers and often arranged in vases or baskets. This silver brooch that was made in France is a such a pretty example and has been set with coloured paste, both faceted and cabochon, and marcasite. It was made circa 1910.
We have a few of these Giardinetti brooches in stock as they came from a private collection. Each one is slightly different so take your pick!
