Victorian Pietra Dura Brooch: 800 Silver Mourning Pin

Jewelry expresses emotion in subtle forms.

Victorian era jewelry craftsmen looked to architecture to create jewelry that became known as mourning jewelry.

This lovely pin embodies the essence of that era. Inlaid pieces delicately detail a single rose surrounded by three blue flower buds and a small blue flower. The color variations against the black stone are exquisite.

A 800 silver setting frames the pin. The delicate rope twist detail finishes the artistry.

The clasp reflects the time frame of the pin.

Condition is very good. The inlay is complete.

The 800 silver mark is on the back of the pin.

Measurements: 1 1/2 inches by 1 inch.
