Pink Enamel Dog Rose Flower Brooch | 14k Gold Flower Brooch deco engagement 4 inches wide by 0The dog rose, with its soft pink hue, is a symbol of both pleasure and pain. The flower's association with pleasure dates back to medieval times when dog rose flowers were placed at the end of a maiden's bed to signify a king's interest in her company that evening. The pain associations come from the belief that the flower could be used to cure the bite of a mad dog. This substantial 14k gold enamel dog rose brooch by the renowned A. J. Hedges & Co.
