This seal was crafted by the prominent London jewelers Hunt & Roskell, known for their exquisite craftsmanship, around 1890. The seal features a large, dark red gemstone set in a gold and enamel mount, with intricate details and a design reminiscent of a stylized flower. The use of enamel adds vibrant color and texture, highlighting the craftsmanship and artistry involved in the piece. The seal was likely intended for Queen Emma of the Netherlands, showcasing the lavish tastes of royalty in the late 19th century.
