Brooch

Tiffany & Co.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Gold brooch with a large square-cut green gemstone in the center, surrounded by a double row of small white gemstones. The green gemstone, likely an emerald, has a gold border and is set within a circle of small white gemstones. The brooch features a leaf-like design with two rows of white gemstones, resembling diamonds, arranged in a circular pattern. The leaves are teardrop-shaped and oval, with some being larger than others. A thin gold bar runs horizontally behind the brooch, likely serving as a pin or clasp. The background is a solid gray color.
