It is an anemone brooch. Thanks for the info on the Faberge design because it pointed me in the right direction. It is indeed a Faberge reproduction. The pin was available at the Met Museum of Art Store in the USA. It is sold out in the USA and Australia. http://www.themetstore.com.au/russian-imperial-crimson-anemone-pin.html
Poppy flower:
Anemone flower:
They look so similar to one another that you could mistake one for the other with this kind of brooch design.
