This extraordinary vintage opera brooch is a richly layered work of wearable art, capturing the expressive glamour and sculptural creativity of 1970s design. Executed in a basket-style composition, the brooch brings together an opulent array of gemstones and organic materials, creating a piece that feels theatrical, romantic, and unmistakably bold. At its heart are four old mine cut diamonds totaling approximately 1.00 carat, their softly glowing brilliance lending antique depth and historic character to the design.
Interwoven throughout the brooch are beautifully carved angel skin coral elements, prized for their delicate blush tones and organic elegance. These are complemented by striking amethysts—both trapezoid baguette and round brilliant cuts—totaling approximately 3.40 carats, adding rich purple hues and geometric contrast. An assortment of pearls completes the composition, introducing luminous softness and textural balance that enhances the brooch’s ornate, basket-inspired form.
Crafted in warm 14k yellow gold and substantial in scale, measuring approximately 2⅝ by 2⅛ inches, the brooch has a commanding yet refined presence. With its intricate construction, vibrant gemstone palette, and dramatic silhouette, this opera brooch is a true statement piece—celebrating vintage artistry, bold design, and timeless elegance in one unforgettable jewel.
