Antique Rose Pin of 14k Gold

An antique brooch dating from approximately 1890–1910, featuring a beautifully sculpted wild rose rendered in 14K gold with an old European cut diamond at its center. Floral motifs were among the most beloved themes of the late Victorian and Edwardian periods, with the rose often symbolizing love, beauty, and devotion. The carefully modeled petals display exceptional detail, while the antique diamond provides a subtle sparkle that enhances the naturalistic design.

The brooch measures approximately 0.75 inches in diameter and weighs 4.12 grams. The piece remains in great antique condition with well-preserved details throughout.

Gemstone identification has been confirmed using Raman spectroscopy, a non-destructive analytical technique that provides a precise chemical fingerprint to verify authenticity.

Metal authenticity has been professionally verified using XRF (X-ray fluorescence) analysis and traditional jeweler’s acid testing, confirming solid 14K gold construction with a solid 10K gold pin stem.
