High Victorian 18k Yellow Gold Bird and Flowers Brooch Pin

Presented is an exquisite Victorian 18K gold brooch.  The round pin is decorated
with an intricate bird flying over a field of flowers.  The detailed bird was
cast separately and applied.  The original piece of beveled glass is still
present on the reverse so you can add a photograph or whatever you like.  There
was an inscription on the reverse originally, but years later a piece of gold
was added to reinforce the hinge and clasp, and some of the presentation has
been covered over.  What is still visible reads, “??? & E.M.H. 20th July
18??”.  This piece was made in the mid 1800s, probably the 1870s and probably in
America or possibly England.

The pin is not marked.  We have tested it with nitric acid and guarantee it
to be 18K gold.

The condition is excellent.  There are no splits, no breaks, and no repairs.

The pin measures 1 1/4 inches in diameter.

The weight is 10.2 grams.
