TINY 18TH C. PORTRAIT MINIATURE IN GOLD/DIAMOND BROOCH. This tiny but very fine portait of an 18th century lady is painted on natural material and is set in a brooch measuring just 1 inch (2.6 cm) across. The ribbon mount is set with a number of tiny rose-cut diamonds (tested..
metal - appears to be gold).
Due to delicate construction, I have not examined portrait outside of frame.
Possibly doing so might reveal some details of the sitter or the artist.
