The History

This beautiful pin comes from the Georgian Era! The Georgian Era is known for its hand crafted designs that shaped the jeweler world as we know it today! Georgian jewelry today is extremely rare!

The chasing technique is a very difficult silversmith process when the artist uses a nail like tool and hammer to hand etch patterns within the metal work. This process was very difficult and only the best jewelers were trained in the process.

Bohemian Garnets have been mined in the Bohemian Hills of Czechoslovakia since the 16th century. These garnets reached their height of popularity in jewelry of the Victorian era to the Art Deco Era\'s. Bohemian Garnet is widely coveted due to its gorgeous red hues and due to the fact that this Garnet has been depleted and no known mines exist any longer.

The Piece

The Bohemian Garnet in this piece is beautifully cabochon cut into a round shape and features a beautifully smooth polished surface. The Bohemian Garnet show cases its signature deep red color with a gorgeous clarity that is absolutely beautiful to look into!

The Scottish Agate in this piece serves as an incredibly base for the pin with a beautifully smooth polished surface and gorgeous brown color! The agate features a subtle hint of white throughout that gives the entire piece an incredible amount of contrast and elegant flare.

The gold work in this piece is hand carved out of yellow gold and features a lovely design! The design includes an incredible round shape with a beautiful flower setting for the Bohemian Garnet in the center of the piece! The flower design, and the rim of the gorgeous pin are all decorated with beautifully hand chased designs that give the pin an elegant style.

The pin is finished off with a \"C\" style pin catch that works perfectly. If you wish your local jeweler may be able to fasten an enclosure mechanism onto the catch for you.

The pin measures 1\" in diameter.
