19th-century bi-metallic brooch in gold and silver. The main frame, foliate and mythical-creature elements are worked in gold, while wing-shaped ornaments are crafted in silver and accented with rose-cut diamonds. Centred by a relief bust of the sorrowful praying Madonna with gentle, serene expression. The background features open-work enamel, decorated with geometric star-shaped motifs in green and blue tones. Rich chased-metal textures create striking contrast between gold and silver. Fine European antique devotional jewellery. Enamel colours remain stable, diamonds intact, the relief subject is well-preserved, and all components are complete.
