An Arts and Crafts moonstone and sapphire brooch, circa 1900.

The lot is in good overall condition with scratches and small dents in keeping with general wear. There are larger dents to some leaves and tarnish/discolouration to most. There is a later hinged pendant fitting. The pin is a possible replacement. The moonstone has light surface scratches, is a shallow cut and has a bluish adulurescence. The sapphires are not well matched with varying degrees of tone and saturation with some strong angular colour zoning. Another of the sapphires has weak saturation with surface reaching fissures. One of the cabs is shallow and may have been chipped and re-polished. Please see important notices in the front of the catalogue for coloured stones.
