Antique Victorian brooch made of silver with a gold back and pin. It is adorned with a large, carved green glass paste, surrounded by a delicate halo of faceted white glass pastes that provide extraordinary luminosity and enhance the balance of the composition.

Its design evokes the jewelry sets that achieved great popularity during Queen Victoria's reign, inspired by large colored gemstones and widely disseminated by European jewelry in the late 19th century. The original "C" clasp, the mixed silver and gold mounting, and the open settings are features fully consistent with Victorian jewelry, making it a magnificent collector's piece with all the personality and elegance of the era.
