An Edwardian sterling silver brooch by Thomas & Co, Birmingham, hallmarked 1907.

Description

Own a beautiful piece of Edwardian history with this Edwardian sterling silver brooch, made by Thomas & Co. and hallmarked in Birmingham in 1907. This finely crafted antique brooch reflects the romantic design style of the early 20th century.

The brooch features a raised, polished silver oval centre. Around it, rows of ornate silver beading create elegant texture and depth. Four applied leaf-shaped details frame the brooch symmetrically, each carefully detailed with fine engraving. These natural motifs were a signature of Edwardian jewellery, inspired by the Art Nouveau movement and the elegance of organic forms.

Made entirely from solid sterling silver, this piece is officially hallmarked on the reverse. The full English hallmark confirms its origin: Birmingham assay office, 1907, and the registered maker’s mark for Thomas & Co. It has a traditional C-clasp and pin fitting on the back, which is still in excellent working condition.

Lightweight yet visually bold, this antique brooch is perfect for wearing on lace, silk, or wool. Style it on a vintage blouse, jacket lapel, shawl, or velvet ribbon for a refined and timeless look. Whether worn alone or layered with other antique pieces, it offers grace and character.

Ideal for collectors of Edwardian jewellery, silver enthusiasts, or those seeking a meaningful heirloom gift. This brooch is over 115 years old and remains in exceptional antique condition with a soft, natural patina.
