Belle Époque Chalcedony Turquoise Brooch | French 18ct Gold with Onyx & Diamonds | c.1880s

An exquisite Belle Époque brooch crafted in France around the 1880s, combining softness and contrast with elegant precision.

At its centre lies a luminous oval chalcedony panel, inlaid with a scrolling botanical design in turquoise and diamond.

A border of finely carved onyx flowers frames the composition, creating a halo of deep black around the pale centre - refined, romantic, and deeply expressive.

Set in 18ct gold and measuring approximately 5cm x 4cm, this is a rare and wearable jewel of the Belle Époque: confident in detail, poetic in spirit, and unmistakably French.

Available exclusively at ELTONS, Grays Antique Market, Mayfair, London.
