Victorian Silver & Gold Frog Brooch set with Rubies,Emeralds & Rose Diamonds

643T
360 Admirers Rare Find
Written by Olly Gerrish

An amazing and rare Novelty brooch that features a frog. His body is silver with gold down the centre, and has been set with specially selected graduated rubies down his back, and graduated rose diamonds over his body. He also has vivid green emerald eyes. In ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia, frogs symbolised fertility, while in classical antiquity, the Greeks and Romans also associated frogs with fertility and harmony. This brooch was made in the Victorian period, circa 1890, when “Novelty brooches” as they are known, featuring animals, birds and insects were very fashionable.

They are as collectable and wearable today as they were then.
