Georgian 15ct Gold Butterfly Brooch set with a Chrysolite & a Garnet

185Z
162 Admirers

A beautiful small 15ct gold brooch of a butterfly. It was made circa 1830 and it’s body has been set with a long pear shaped almandine garnet with a chrysolite above. The bright cut engraving on the wings is stunning.

The butterfly is a symbol of the soul, immortality, rebirth and resurrection, the ability to transform, a butterfly is born, transforming from a caterpillar. Also, the butterfly is a symbol of the Great Goddess. The image of the Great Goddess goes back to the ancient times of human history, to the Paleolithic. This supreme deity personified heaven and earth at the same time, life and death.

So the wearing of this butterfly carries wonderful meanings.
