Bow-shaped Brooch
While this diamond bow now serves as a brooch, its original function was different. The jeweller Adrianus Steen fashioned the bow in 1784 as part of a monstrance for the Catholic Mozes en Aäronkerk in Amsterdam. The bow is set with rose-cut diamonds, only the top sides of which are faceted.
