Antique Violet Pendant Brooch of 14k Gold

This exquisite jewel captures the grace and delicacy of a violet in full bloom. Crafted in warm 14k gold, each petal is rendered in lifelike detail and centered with a luminous natural pearl. A testament to early 20th-century artistry, the piece seamlessly blends elegance with versatility—featuring a discreet collapsible bail that allows it to be worn as either a brooch or a pendant. Measuring 1.5 inches from the top of the extended bail to the base by 1.2 inches wide, and weighing 4.56 grams, it offers a balanced presence—substantial yet refined. The gold content has been verified using XRF (x-ray fluorescence) analysis and confirmed with traditional jeweler’s acid testing, ensuring authenticity and lasting value. In exceptional condition, this jewel would be equally at home pinned to a silk lapel or suspended from a fine gold chain, making it a versatile addition to a sophisticated collection. Materials: 14k gold, Pearl.
