ABOUT THIS BROOCH

This antique confection, hailing from the Georgian era, features an intricate, textured, openwork design, brightened by eight pink topaz* stones that glimmer around a central topaz, framed by small gold spheres. Beautifully preserved, it is a rare and remarkable treasure that will add the allure of centuries past to your unique contemporary style. Hand fabricated in 18K yellow gold (pin stem is 14K rosy-yellow gold). *Topazes are clear; their pink color is attributed to colored foil backing, which was a common practice for coloring or enhancing stones at the time (early-to-mid 19th century).

Georgian Jewelry

True antiques, Georgian jewels are the earliest pieces in our collection. Lovely foil-backed stones in mixed-metal settings were made to shine by candlelight over dinner and in the drawing rooms of their genteel wearers. Many pieces were made in memory of loved ones or as “memento mori”—literal reminders of mortality that Georgians saw as sophisticated, rather than morbid. While the delicacy of Georgian era settings has been replaced by more modern methods, the cuts and styles have continued to fascinate jewelry lovers.

Jewelry Care

As with anything of value, especially sentimental value, taking good care of your vintage and antique jewelry from Lang will enhance its beauty and extend its lifespan. We encourage you to have your jewelry checked and cleaned by us or by your trusted local jeweler every six months, to ensure that each piece is in good wearable condition with all gemstones in place. It’s not uncommon for stones to loosen over time, and it’s much easier to tighten a loose stone than to replace a lost one! As stated in our Repair Policy, we strongly recommend that you allow us to perform any repairs, since our jewelers are specialists in restoring vintage and antique jewelry.
