{"product_id":"victorian-seed-pearl-18k-yellow-gold-brooch","title":"Victorian seed pearl 18k yellow gold brooch","description":"\u003cdiv\u003eFifteen seed pearls, each measuring approximately 1.35mm to 1.56mm, are set across this brooch, their small, uniform size and natural luster a hallmark of seed pearl work, a technique that reached particular popularity in the nineteenth century for its delicate, all-over texture. Black enamel detailing runs through the 18k yellow gold, a contrast that was a common Victorian mourning and sentiment-jewelry device, giving the piece a graphic quality against the warm gold and soft pearls. Measuring 1.75 by 1.56 inches and weighing 10.70 grams, the brooch has real presence without being oversized. Circa 1880s, this is a genuine period piece combining two techniques, seed pearl work and black enamel, that are rarely seen executed together with this much care today. A distinctive antique for anyone drawn to the quieter, more textural side of Victorian jewelry design rather than a piece built around a single faceted gemstone.\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Jack Weir \u0026 Sons","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50518188589275,"sku":"38957","price":3300.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0944\/1720\/files\/38957_4195986.jpg?v=1790375326","url":"https:\/\/jackweirandsons.com\/fr\/products\/victorian-seed-pearl-18k-yellow-gold-brooch","provider":"Jack Weir \u0026 Sons","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
