VICTORIAN MALACHITE AND ENAMEL BROOCH
Terminating in a fringed collet-set oval malachite swing-drop supported above by similarly set drop-shaped malachite cabochon measuring approximately 24 x 17mm, within a decorative white enamel surround, further framed by a foliate motif, the reverse centring a glazed photo compartment, mounted in 18ct gold, length 88mm, width 38mm, gross weight approximately 19 grams.

Estimate $900 - $1,300

Sold for $600

In our opinion, the malachite has some minor scratches to the surface. The enamel is intact with some areas of minor loss. Swing-drop possibly later.

The mounting displays scratches, discolouration and some tarnish commensurate with age and wear.

The brooch is of good workmanship with signs of wear consistent with age and use, not noticeable when worn.

Overall condition is very good to good.
