This lovely vintage blue Wedgwood brooch is in a beautiful sterling silver setting and features six regal Neoclassical figures, including one man kneeling before a noblewoman. Is he asking for her hand in marriage, begging her forgiveness, or simply struck by her beauty? Could all these imperious men be her suitors? Is she a queen? Surely this a brooch for an equally noble person.
