A Victorian Aesthetic butterflies gilt basket with a cranberry glass bowl liner dated 1869.

All Items : Archives : Estate Jewelry : Silver : Pre Victorian : Pre 1920 item #1087509 (stock #6523)
A scarce sterling silver filigree posey holder pin circa 1900 1910. This antique 2-1/4" long and 1" across (unmarked but tested) fantastic posy or corsage brooch is an example of ornate and very fine silver work.

This possible bridal item either started out as a flower bouquet holder and had the pin added or was always a posy-pin. It has a c-clasp. It can readily be converted to (or back to) a small bouquet holder. It weighs 12.6 grams, and it is in excellent condition for its age and fineness, with no corrosion or repairs other than what appears to be a small section of missing wire and the c-clasp has been repaired.
