A new form of jewellery enjoyed great popularity in the 1890s: figurative pieces set all over with so-called pavé (from the French word for pavement) made of diamond roses. Swallows, hearts and even jockeys on galloping horses were made using this technique. This brooch is a particularly beautiful, almost poetic example of this: 154 diamond roses weighing half a carat together form a shimmering cloverleaf. The four leaves of the clover arch out towards the viewer in a finely modeled form. A single, large old-cut diamond of around a third of a carat sparkles in their center in a delicate, sunny yellow tone. The stylized, elongated stem turns the cloverleaf into a bar brooch. At the time, this brooch shape was often used to hold together the fine lace at the neckline of a formal dress. We discovered the brooch in Berlin. According to its hallmark, however, it was made in Vienna. It is in very good condition and a wonderful lucky charm from the Belle Époque - the age of beautiful things.
