Gold And Platinum Brooch, Sapphires And Diamonds, Free Form, 1940-1950 Period

Large free-form brooch in solid gold and platinum decorated with blue sapphire and diamond. Superb design and modeling by the jeweler in the shape of a half moon, wheat-style sheaf and gold spheres. Set in 18-carat solid gold and two platinum half moons. Set set with 30 old-cut blue sapphires 2 mm in diameter for an approximate weight of 1.2 carats on the wheat-style sheaves. The platinum half moons are set with 25 old-cut diamonds, including 17 3 mm in diameter for an approximate weight of 1.87 carats and 8 2 mm in diameter for an approximate weight of 0.24 carats. A double pin at the back allows it to be hung and a small claw secures the brooch to clothing. Hallmarks on the stem and gold and platinum. Gross weight 21.01 gr. According to my neighboring jeweler, this is a very high quality piece made after the war in the 40s-50s by a jeweler who put all his know-how into this creation.
