Description

DATE: Victorian, c.1880

A charming diamond star brooch made in the Etruscan Revival style, circa 1880. The star has a smooth gold finish, and a single 0.10ct old mine cut diamond rests in the centre within a star shaped setting. It features a finely hand pierced gallery and it's crafted in 15k yellow gold throughout. The sky's mysterious nature intrigued the Victorians, and it represented the realm of dreams, magic, and the hidden aspects of life. Star motifs were a popular choice, and were worn to indicate direction and guidance for the spirit.
