The purple glass at the centre of this oval Arts & Crafts brooch pulls everything together, its faceted surface catching light against the soft pewter surround with its closely-worked relief of organic botanical forms. A pleasing piece in the Ruskin tradition, the dimpled ground and flowing motifs giving it the quiet authority that marks this style at its most assured.
