VICTORIAN  BIRD BROOCH, 14K YELLOW GOLD

Hand made brooch features three colors of karat gold, much of it textured "diamond cut".  The flowers, leaves, seashell & bird are individually made and mounted on an open framework.  Set with tiny turquoise cabachons and three perhaps natural or perhaps cultured baroque pearls.  The bird is usually silver and in this case appears to be silver with a partial gold wash.  Sparklz can't find the reference she used when she had a pair of earrings like this brooch, but the recollection is that this is traditional "Jewelry of the People" made in a remote Mexican village and has been made for generations in exactly the same way, so it is difficult to actually date.  The clasp is a curlique c-style, which would indicate that this  probably dates to the first third of the 1900s.  Further research may elicit more information.  Sparklz is looking through her library for the original information.  In the meantime apparently similar pieces can be seen in David & Pack "Mexican Jewelry".  The dangles hang correctly, they just look askew as the picture was made on a scanner.  In excellent condition, except for a missing floret near the bird's beak.  Antique estate jewelry, the BROOCH is about 2 3/4 inches.   Estimated replacement value $1500-$2500.
