Antique Silver Fleur-de-Lis Brooch with Persian Turquoise – 800 Silver Marked, 19th Century

This exquisite antique brooch features a classic fleur-de-lis design, delicately adorned with natural Persian turquoise cabochons in varying blue-green hues. Crafted from 800 silver, as indicated by the stamped hallmark on the reverse, this piece showcases traditional European craftsmanship, likely dating to the mid-to-late 19th century.

Each tiny turquoise stone is hand-set into the scrolling arms and floral crown of the brooch. While one bead is missing, and the piece shows age-related patina and surface wear, these signs only enhance its character and authenticity. The brooch closes with a traditional C-clasp and extended pin stem, a hallmark of genuine antique construction.
