What kind of flowers this?

Beachkid23 · Mar 15, 2014

Looking for a specific name is I'm not really sure. A little background is marked 18k 750 with the diamond and its 14g. I paid $300. But need the kind of flower. Thanks!

Is it a tulip flower?
Google tulip flower picture, see what you get/if it matches.

With those elongated leaves, I would say tulip also.

I'm leaning towards maybe a crocus.

Add my vote for a tulip.

Thanks. She's in the shop getting the tip put back on or sanded down to match the other one.

I think it is some sort of blossom from a tree it looks like a branch. The leaves do not look like tulip leaves they look more like a tree leaf.

Ok. Is there a botanist in the house? :laughing7:

G, I was noticing the veins in the leaves, thinking maybe, "artists interpretation"? :dontknow:

It does seem as the stem may be a little "barky". LOL!

I searched flowering tree pics and exotic flowering tree pics. I can switch from word search to pic search.
I can't find any tree flower that looks like it, but I been lost in beautiful flowers!
I wonder if it has a makers or designers mark on it? Also, was there a pearl perhaps at the end of the bloom stamen?
Get us more pics, it's real pretty!

The only mark on it is 750 and 18 K. It is at the jewelers right now and I will pick it up tomorrow but I'm having the one end of the flower taken off and sanded down to look like the one that broke off. (Pic 2). But at the bottom of it is a diamond instead of a pearl. I will get it tomorrow and take more pictures. I think it's pretty old though.

Looks more like a bud from a tree.... agree with "rendition" theory.

It's getting repaired the jeweler found an original picture one so he's going to refurbish and make it look like new again it's going to look pretty sweet!

maybe cherry blossom

Beachkid23 · Mar 21, 2014

Are you ready for this? I got the piece back from the jewelrs before I left. Repaired looking new!

diggummup · Mar 22, 2014

Where did the jeweler find an old photo of it at?

I think it dates to sometime around the turn of the century, Edwardian maybe? Isn't that a trombone catch with a riveted hinge? It's hard to see the hinged end. At any rate, it's a nice old piece.

He actually said he worked on one similar in his career. And had a photo of it in his personal profile of projects.

But did he tell you exactly what kind of flower it is?
