From the late 17th century onwards this Italian word was applied to describe articles of jewellery, mainly rings and brooches, with an intricate floral openwork motif, consisting of colourful gems set in designs resembling flowers and often arranged in vases or baskets. This silver brooch that was made in France is a such a pretty example and has been set with coloured paste, both faceted and cabochon, and marcasite. It was made circa 1910.
