AN EARLY 20TH CENTURY RUBY, DIAMOND AND PEARL BAR BROOCH
Designed as a three-leaf shamrock set with round rubies and pavé-set diamonds in silver on gold, centred with a seed pearl, mounted on a bar.
With hinged pin, c-clasp with safety catch, and safety chain.
Tests as 9ct gold
Size/dimensions: 4.60cm long

All stones are present and secure. The rubies show some wear to the facet edges, and one red stone is a later rose-cut paste replacement. Some diamonds show chips or dark inclusions, not noticeable when worn. The pin is slightly bent and some patina is forming, but there is otherwise little wear, and the clasp is in perfect working order. The brooch is offered in very good condition.
