Modern 14KY gold, ruby and enamel frog brooch

Description : Two round natural faceted prong set ruby eyes look out ahead on this patterned green enamel frog brooch. He is leaping forward, and is very animated. Enamel is a fascinating process. This frog was cast with the negative shapes open, and then a vitreous enamel brilliantly colored is fused to the surface of the gold, filling the negative areas. The frog symbolizes metamorphosis as the tadpole develops into an adult, signifying change and growth. Ruby is the birthstone for July, and green is the color representing change and creativity.
