Two 18 Karat Gold, Diamond and Enamel Brooches, David Webb

The two frogs, one larger one smaller, both decorated with gold studs and highlighted with white enamel, set with round diamonds weighing a total of approximately .50 carat, total gross weight approximately 37 dwts, both signed Webb.

Both pieces in good condition with some scratching to the gold throughout, commensurate with wear but not apparent when worn. One area of significant enamel loss, located on the right fore-arm of the larger frog. Other areas with very minor enamel damage and some light scratching, but otherwise intact. The diamonds are approximately G-H color, VS clarity. Dimensions of larger brooch approximately 1 3/4 by 1 1/4 inches, dimensions of smaller brooch approximately 1 by 3/4 of an inch.
