Edwardian 18ct Gold and Platinum, Burma Ruby, Natural Pearls and Rose Diamond Negligee (Double Drop) Brooch feed-agegroup-adult This is a lovely exampleThis quirky and rather magnificent jewel was most likely converted from a pendant.* The Edwardians loved the hugely complimentary combination of pearls, rubies and diamonds. They are set in platinum and 18ct gold. The brooch part was later and is hallmarked for 14ct gold. They also loved slight asymmetry, as seen in the length of the drops here. This jewel is certainly a conversation starter! *We can convert this back to a pendant at no extra charge.
