The delicate artistry and the natural lines of this black onyx and seed pearl brooch make it wearable and memorable. This is the finest one I have seen.

The size is 2 5/8” x ½” wide. From front to back including the floral relief through the trombone catch.

It has 29 seed pearls and weighs 19.0 grams. It tests at 14K.

In Victorian culture, flowers symbolically expressed what was not publically proclaimed. The Lily of the Valley symbolized the reuniting of loved ones who've departed.

The condition is good, with a little corrosion on the catch pin.
