A commanding Art Nouveau botanical brooch with a dense repoussé composition of grapes, vine leaves and curling stems in a richly aged gilt finish that gives the naturalistic detail real depth and authority. It has the physical presence the subject demands, and the deep oxidation in the recesses pulls every element of the carving into sharp relief.
