This exquisite Italian brooch is a masterpiece of vintage jewelry design, crafted from luxurious 18-karat yellow gold. The brooch features an enchanting 'Horse and Carriage' motif, beautifully detailed to capture the elegance and romance of a bygone era. It weighs approximately 4.5 pennyweights (dwt), combining substantiality with a delicate artistry.
The brooch measures 1-5/8 inches in width, making it a statement piece while still being versatile enough to wear on various occasions. The design intricately depicts a horse in mid-stride, pulling a classic carriage. Both elements are meticulously sculpted, showcasing the skill of Italian craftsmanship with fine lines and textured finishes that give a dynamic and realistic appearance.
Adding to its allure, the brooch is embellished with a set of vibrant gems. These gems are strategically placed to enhance the visual impact of the piece, perhaps representing elements like the carriage lights or the horse's harness. The use of color in the gems contrasts beautifully against the warm glow of the yellow gold, catching the light and drawing the eye.
This brooch is not only a piece of jewelry but a work of art that reflects the luxurious and intricate designs characteristic of vintage Italian craftsmanship. It's an ideal choice for collectors and fashion enthusiasts who appreciate the beauty and history embedded in high-quality vintage pieces.
