Scottish Silver Harp Brooch | Agate & Citrine | c.1860
POA
Description
This beautifully crafted Scottish harp brooch dates to around 1860, set in silver and inlaid with polished agate panels in rich tones of moss, jasper, and bloodstone.
A golden citrine sits at the top, while twisted silver wire forms the harp strings, a fine detail that reflects the level of Victorian craftsmanship.
The harp, a national symbol of Scotland and Ireland, carried deep meaning in this era - representing harmony, heritage, and romanticism.
Made during the height of Queen Victoria’s fascination with Highland culture, this brooch would have been worn to signal both taste and identity.
Measuring 3.5cm x 6cm, it remains in excellent antique condition.
A rare and elegant piece of 19th-century Scottish jewellery, full of symbolism and character.
Available exclusively at ELTONS, Grays Antique Market, Mayfair, London.
