An Antique Georgian Amethyst Brooch,
circa 1820, of Girandole design, rub-over set with foil-back oval mixed-cut amethysts, with closed-back settings, suspending a further amethyst drop, unmarked mount tests as 18ct yellow gold, 75.5mm, 23.5g
The amethysts vary slightly in colour saturation, partly due to some tarnishing of the foil backings, all of the surrounding amethysts have obvious internal inclusions. The mount has light surface wear, with 2 small dents on drop backing, and 1 small filing mark at top of backing. Overall in good condition.
