An incredibly rare and highly important antique naturalistic statement brooch, masterfully crafted during the mid-to-late Victorian era (circa 1870) in solid 9-karat yellow gold and legendary hand-carved Sciacca coral. Weighing a substantial 22.70 grams, this museum-quality piece is a stellar example of the romantic, nature-inspired high jewelry that characterized nineteenth-century Italian goldsmithing. The undisputed hallmark of this heirloom is the material itself: natural sub-fossil coral from the historical banks of Sciacca, Sicily. Long exhausted, this specific variety is internationally coveted by collectors for its unique and vibrant color palette, ranging from soft salmon-pink to a rich, warm, golden-orange hue. The three-dimensional, highly sculptural composition depicts a pair of lush, pendulous grape clusters. Dozens of perfectly hand-shaped round coral beads are individually articulated to form the juicy grapes, hanging gracefully beneath an exquisite canopy of naturalistic vine leaves, each meticulously hand-carved in high relief with realistic organic veining. Fine 9k yellow gold wires are twisted by hand into whimsical, coiled tendrils that hold the organic elements together in perfect harmony. Serving as a wearable piece of history and a phenomenal investment, this 22.70-gram brooch is an unforgettable acquisition for true connoisseurs of rare antique coral jewelry...

An exceptionally bold and luxurious vintage 1980s high-jewelry masterpiece depicting a stylized, wise owl, Masterfully handcrafted in solid 18k yellow gold, this massive, highly collectible statement piece weighs an impressive 43.30 grams, making it an investment-grade example of late 20th-century animalier couture. The substantial body of the owl features a large, beautifully polished natural Malachite gemstone, meticulously carved into a romantic heart shape. The malachite shows a rich, deep forest-green coloration with exquisite, vibrant organic banding patterns that run seamlessly across both the front and back of the open-bezel setting. Perched above the heart is a highly expressive, three-dimensional owl head. The textured, layered feathers are hand-painted with pristine white vitreous Enamel, accented by striking emerald-green enamel rings framing the eyes and a warm orange enamel glaze highlighting the curved gold beak. The owl's hypnotic gaze is brought to life by two premium round natural blue Sapphire cabochons totaling 1.06 carats, serving as the pupils. The eyes and geometric brow lines are brilliantly illuminated by 0.35 carats of icy round brilliant-cut diamonds. An exceptional and highly desirable design feature of this jewel is its clever dual-functional engineering: the reverse backing is equipped with both a traditional secure pin closure and a pair of integrated gold suspension loops at the top. This allows the piece to transition seamlessly from a commanding statement brooch to a spectacular, heavy pendant centerpiece. Please note: The neck chain is not included in the purchase price. Should you wish to pair the pendant with a matching gold chain, it can be purchased separately and custom ordered upon request.
