Georgian 9ct Gold & Flat Cut Garnet Brooch with Hinged Compartment

340R
514 Admirers
Written by Olly Gerrish

A very pretty 9ct gold brooch that was made circa 1800-1820. It has been pinch collet set with almandine garnets that have been foiled on the reverse to give luminosity. These garnets are a wonderful purplish red colour that is peculiar to the early 19th century jewellery. It hinges open on the reverse and would have originally contained a lock of hair. Nowadays this brooch can be re purposed to contain a photograph. It can be worn as a pendant or a brooch
