The word “Bohemian” derives from the region of Bohemia, a kingdom which later became Czechoslovakia. Among other flourishing trades, this region produced gorgeous, deep red garnet gemstones and a style of jewelry that quickly became popular in the late Victorian Era and through the turn of the century.
This whimsical, sentimental brooch is absolutely covered in deep red, glittering Bohemian garnets! In the form of a clover, it would be given as well wishes on any endeavor about to be undertaken. A wonderful Edwardian piece that will bring you lots of luck and admiration!
