{"product_id":"pin-18kyg-flower-cart","title":"Victorian 18KY gold enamel, applique, and ruby horse drawn flower cart brooch","description":"\n        \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDescription\u003c\/b\u003e : A Sicilian horse cart with flowers was called a ‘carretto siciliano’. The Sicilian use of flowers is often a narrative for a celebration of nature. In Sicily the floral motif had multiple meanings, but also the flower cart was actually a functional vehicle. Italian pride is shown in the articulate details of this solid 18KY gold pin, and the image of the horse symbolizes a prized animal in their culture.  Clusters of natural red rubies prong set in the cart are gathered as if bouquets of roses fill the cart. The enamel work is in good condition for the age of this pin. Most likely made in the early 1900's, this endearing memento shows the joy, craftsmanship and the talismanic properties of flowers that are thought to ward off evil spirits.  This heirloom is a very special gift for someone who loves the historic traditions of Italy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n        \u003cbr\u003e\n        \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eItem Number\u003c\/b\u003e : P25796\u003c\/p\u003e\n        \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e Category \u003c\/b\u003e : PIN\u003c\/p\u003e\n        \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e Brand \u003c\/b\u003e : CF\n        \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CF","offers":[{"title":"Used \/ 1 \/ 1","offer_id":49251271999705,"sku":"C10437P25796-V1","price":3300.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0610\/2810\/6457\/files\/1790197767-20.jpg?v=1790197772","url":"https:\/\/classicfacets.com\/products\/pin-18kyg-flower-cart","provider":"Classic Facets","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
