(Redirected from Giardinetto)

A gardinetto or giardinetto (from Italian) is an ornament in the form of a flower basket, especially suited for brooches. The colorful items were created from a multicolored array of gemstones as rubies, emeralds and sapphires which were often calibrated. These brooches were very popular in the 1920's.
