My first antique piece! Enamel, pearl & diamond flower!

[Diamondless]

I'm very excited to present my very first piece of antique jewelry! I've been an antique lover my whole life and I finally pulled the trigger on a piece I couldn't pass by. It's technically a brooch, but I wrapped a chain around the pin and it sits perfectly as a pendant. The brooch is circa 1900, so I'm thinking it's either art nouveau or victorian. 14K with enamel, seed pearls set into the petals and a small 5 point diamond in the middle. What I'm most excited about is the fact that it's a signed piece by Krementz!

Diamondless that is gorgeous!!! I love the enamel pieces I have a enamel flower very much like yours except mine has a pearl center and no pearl edge, there are some pics around here somewhere, I have not worn it on a chain like that but after seeing it I will have to try it, it looks lovely. They go well with pearls too. I just love the enamel on these pieces it has such a luminous quality. Great find!

Thank you! Enamel pieces are some of my favorites!

Your flower is beautiful! I usually only see pansy flowers, and iridescent enamel is even rarer!
