Georgian Petite Paste Brooch

A pretty brooch from the Georgian period. The brooch is made from silver and has lovely alternative cut paste set into traditional settings. The hand cut paste is very appealing and the brooch adds a pretty touch of sparkle to a darker outfit. It was possibly part of something else and converted into a brooch in antiquity, though I cannot be sure of this.
