The metal nearly vanishes, allowing 205 precisely cut rubies to become the design itself, creating an uninterrupted sea of ruby red.\u003cbr\u003eThe rich ruby leaves surround a sparkling cluster of brilliant-cut diamonds, while a graceful stem, lined with baguette diamonds set in white gold, adds just the right amount of contrast. It's bold without being oversized, and beautifully sculptural from every angle.\u003cbr\u003eMade famous by Van Cleef and Arpels, invisible setting reached its golden age in the mid-20th century and is now rarely seen outside exceptional vintage jewelry. Some techniques don't disappear because they're forgotten—they disappear because they're almost impossible to execute.\u003cbr\u003eSome jewelry survives. Some craftsmanship becomes history. This piece is both.\u003cbr\u003eDetails\u003cbr\u003eCirca 1950s\u003cbr\u003eCrafted in 18K yellow and white gold\u003cbr\u003eSet with 205 square-cut natural rubies, approximately 12.85 carats total weight\u003cbr\u003eRubies: Type II, moderately included, medium-dark slightly purplish red\u003cbr\u003eFive round brilliant-cut diamonds, approximately 0.30 carat total weight, SI2 clarity, G–H color\u003cbr\u003eEight baguette-cut diamonds, approximately 0.24 carat total weight, VS1–VS2 clarity, G–H color\u003cbr\u003eTotal diamond weight: approximately 0.54 carat\u003cbr\u003eMeasures approximately 1.25 inches tall\u003cbr\u003eWeight: 10 grams\u003cbr\u003eNo apparent maker's marks\u003cbr\u003eTROMBONE catch fitting\u003cbr\u003eProvenance: Property from a private collector, Ann Arbor, Michigan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhether you're drawn to the craftsmanship, the saturated ruby color, or simply have a weakness for remarkable vintage jewelry, this brooch is the kind of piece that becomes a favorite the moment you hold it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCondition: The overall condition of this brooch is excellent.
