Is this not the most wonderful ever!? Bohemian Garnet double tiered brooch in pristine antique condition. Around 20 grams of jewels in two tiers of rose cut, prong set Bohemian pyrope (Greek meaning "fire like") garnets all set in 900 silver washed with gold. The bottom tier has a scalloped outer edge with an inner cut out star or snowflake shape. Style, glitz, and grace, not to mention quality of construction, this ornate and magnificent pin is just killer! The seven large stones set this brooch apart from the usual.. so sought after in excellent condition as this one is.The old style C clasp and double layer (tiered) construction,heavy gold guilt...The color of garnets ranges from a deep sherry red to a bright port wine red when they sparkle. Measures 1-1/8" across.All stones are secure with no broken or replaced garnets.

~*The following is information from a fellow Rubylane buyer from Prague.This is what he told me about this piece: "Appears to have been made in Graz, Austria near last days of the Austrian Hungarian Empire...which dissolved at end of First World War. Graz was one of the most outstanding silver and gold works cities of Europe and their skilled jewelers had direct contact with Bohemian garnet mines just east of them.
