John Grinsell & Sons Celtic Silver Brooch

Please help me welcome my new favorite (and possibly oldest) piece of jewelry to my collection.  This brooch was made by John Grinsell & Sons who's maker mark was registered in Birmingham, England in the late 19th century.  It appears to made of Sterling silver and features extremely intricate detailing with a gorgeous patina, along with inlaid green marble (or other stone) in each of  its 3 clovers.
