Art Deco Carved Sapphire Bird Motif Jabot Brooch gemstone Filigree of 14k white goldWe have all seen carved opal or emerald, coral or amethyst, but carved sapphire? Yes, Art Deco in date around 1925, it is a fantastic jabot brooch with hand carved birds, one at each end. Lovingly sculptured from natural sapphires, each bird is distinct. At the fixed end, a fluffy tailed bird faces its feathery friend. This sapphire is almost entirely blue with some brown deep within the stone, part of the natural inclusions. Even the back is carved.
