A sparkling branch in the dew of glittering flowers was the inspiration for this brooch. A total of fifty-one rose-cut diamonds bathe the brooch in its nostalgic glow. The rose, which has been known since the 16th century but is hardly used today, features triangular facets that give the diamond a very special, typical shine. It is a shimmering, subtle glow that was once meant to reveal its beauty especially by candlelight - after all, the cut dates back to a time before the use of electricity. The largest rose used here is an Amsterdam rose with 24 facets, the smaller ones are mainly Antwerp roses with twelve facets. The brooch is not hallmarked, but it was probably made in the Netherlands, where the rose cut is native. As "takbroche", branch brooch, floral brooches with rose diamonds were extremely popular there in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. As a typical representative of its kind, the brooch is forged from silver and has a underside and a needle of red gold.
