Victorian Brooch of a Shrimp set with rose Diamonds & a Cabochon Ruby in Original Case

899U
160 Admirers Rare Find
Written by Olly Gerrish

A beautiful modelled brooch of a shrimp that was made circa 1890. His body has been set with graduated rose diamonds and he has a small cabochon ruby eye. The body is silver and the legs and feelers are 15ct gold with gold on the reverse.  The shrimp traditionally represents wealth so it would perhaps be a fitting present for a successful person. The brooch is still in its original fitted Burgundy and gold tooled Moroccan leather case with a Royal blue silk and velvet interior.
