Victorian Gemset Bug 'En Tremblant' Brooch chalcedony with God as their witnessDATE: Victorian, c. 1870 Cool Victorian brooch featuring a ruby, diamond, and cat's eye studded bug set 'en tremblant' to create movement when worn, giving the impression the bug is darting around. The term, literally "to tremble", describes the motion created by the trembler (essentially a spring made of thin metal wire). It's crafted in 18 karat gold and silver, with French control marks and a hidden safety chain attaching the bug to the brooch
