A large and exceptional Victorian botanical brooch, the original dried flowers preserved beneath a high-domed glass in a richly gilt brass frame that carries a weight and presence rarely found in pieces of this type. A fine example of the Language of Flowers tradition at its most affecting, the botanical display remarkably intact for its age.
