Victorian 14K Natural Coral Fruit, Flower Buds, & Leaves Brooch

This is a fine antique Victorian 14K gold brooch set with a cluster of carved natural coral fruit, flower buds and leaves. The brooch is unmarked. The metal tests positive for gold content of 14K quality. There are 7 peach like fruits, 7 small fluted flower buds, and 4 leaves. The brooch has an old fashioned T hinged pin stem and C clasp closure.

This brooch weighs 9.6 gr. It measures 2" x 1.5".

Condition: Though difficult to detect, there are 4 empty gold 'stems' that probably once held coral leaves.

This type of old red Mediterranean coral is getting harder and harder to find and new material of this type is tightly controlled to protect the coral.
