This brooch has extensive cloisonné work with a Virgin Mary and a dove, and a crab hallmark (guaranteed for 2nd-title departmental menus since 1838).
Some wear on the cloisonné.
In the Bible, the dove is the most mentioned bird, embodying the beauty, tenderness and fidelity of love, but also purity, freedom and the passionate search for God. Its groans are those of those who suffer while waiting for the salvation that never comes. With the advent of Christianity, the dove became the symbol of the Holy Spirit. When Jesus was baptized, a dove is said to have descended on his head. It's a new beginning for mankind, the renewal of the Covenant with God after the Flood, God's love descending on mankind, offering hope of salvation and eternity.
