Crafted in 15ct carat gold, our Pomina Brooch is an antique treasure. An audacious salamander in motion - embellished with lush creamy seed pearls and bright green demantoid garnets that follow her spine. Curious and collectable she will be a wonderful inclusion in your jewellery collection.
NOTE: Salamanders were once believed to have the ability to withstand fire, making them symbols of immortality, rebirth, and passion. In Renaissance courtly etiquette, the gift of a jewel with a salamander would have symbolized a suitor's burning desire.
