Brooch in 18k rose gold and 800 thousandths silver, featuring a cornflower flower entirely set with seventy-two old-cut brilliant-cut diamonds (one missing), the center approx. 0.50 ct. 
Last quarter of the 19th century.
Total estimated diamond weight: 2.50 ct 
Height : 3.5 cm - Width : 3.2 cm 
Gross weight : 11.3 g

Note: This cornflower must have been part of a larger set or piece of transformable jewelry. It is very similar to the trembling brooches featuring flowering branches _an evening jewel that appeared in the mid-19th century_, where each spring-mounted flower dazzled the wearer's bodice or hairstyle.
