Diamant Schmetterling der Königin Alexandra

Die prächtige antike Diamant Brosche mit Altschliff-Diamanten, montiert in Silber und Gold stammt aus dem späten 19. Jahrhundert und war ein Geschenk an Alexandra, Prinzessin von Wales anlässlich ihrer Silberhochzeit im Jahr 1888.

Ihre Enkeltochter die Prinzessin Royal, Countess of Harewood, trägt die Brosche in Form eines Schmetterlings, oben im Bild an der Schulter, gut erkennbar.
Deutlich die Proportionen der Brosche - breit und ausladend die Schwingen wie im Flug ausgebreitet, sind die Schmetterlingsflügel von Diamanten übersät. Der Körper des Insekts wurde aus 4 unterschiedlich großen Diamanten zusammengesetzt, die Augen sind aus Rubin.

Die Brosche wurde von ihren Nachkommen verkauft und erst kürzlich auf der Messe in Maastricht 2010 von Humphrey Butler, London, im Auftrag einer englischen Familie angeboten. Herr Butler war so freundlich, mir die Bilder zur Verfügung zu stellen und erzählte mir die Brosche ist einfach in puncto Qualität wunderbar.

 

The Princess Royal's Diamonds

Princess Mary Diamond Jewels | Queen Alexandra's important Diamond Butterfly Brooch

The magnificent antique diamond butterfly brooch, with en-tremblant wings and ruby eyes, is pavé-set with 214 old mine-cut diamonds totaling 46.78 carats. The old European-cut stone which forms the body is approximately 2.60 carats. The stones are mounted in silver and have yellow gold detailing. The English-manufactured brooch has a removable fitting and is 5.20cm x 9.50cm.

It dates from the late 19th century and was the present to the then Alexandra, Princess of Wales, on the occasion of her silver wedding anniversary in 1888. Later it was given to her granddaughter the Princess Royal, Countess of Harewood who wears the brooch in the picture above.


It was sold by her descendants and shown to the public at the Maastricht Fair in 2010 by Humphrey Butler, London, on behalf of an English family. Mr Butler was so kind to give me the pictures and told me the brooch is simply marvellous in terms of quality. Since its appearance at the fair, it has appeared for sale at Hancocks & Co. (Jewellers) Ltd. in London. The heirloom jewellery worne by Lady Harewood>>
