18K White Gold Old European Cut Diamond Brooch

A luminous tribute to the elegance of the Art Deco era, this exquisite 18K white gold rectangular filigree brooch captures the refined geometry, intricate detail, and timeless glamour of early 20th-century design. At the heart of the piece, three daisy-like flowers stretch gracefully across the centre panel, each crafted with eight pierced petals, accented by a central gold line and edged with delicate milgrain trim, a hallmark of the period’s fine metalwork. At the centre of each blossom, an old European cut diamond glows softly from a secure bezel setting, adding romantic brilliance to the floral motif. Surrounding the flowers, a flourish of pierced scrolls and curlicues fills the negative space in a light, lace-like pattern that speaks to the masterful use of filigree, a favoured technique of the Art Deco jeweller. The rectangular plaque is bordered by a finely pierced frame of ‘S’-shaped scrolls, elegantly divided by triple lines and six old European cut diamonds at the corners and centre points, offering balanced sparkle and symmetry. The outer edge is scalloped and finished with tiny beadwork, giving the brooch a subtly ornate finish that enhances its antique charm. The overall aesthetic is light yet architectural, soft yet structured, evocative of the modernist elegance and machine-age sophistication that defined the Art Deco movement. Rich with vintage allure and meticulous craftsmanship, this brooch is a dazzling expression of a bygone era when design was both ornamental and precise, and jewellery was a statement of refined taste. It embodies the chic, geometric, and feminine flair of the 1920s and 1930s, offering collectors and connoisseurs a rare and radiant example of period artistry.
