Smoky Quartz & Diamond Oyster Shell Brooch | 18ct Gold Fitting | Victorian c.1880s

Description
Carved in luminous smoky quartz and set with a sparkling old cut diamond, this beautifully made Victorian brooch takes the form of an open oyster shell, a poetic symbol of hidden beauty and feminine strength.
It’s small at 2.5cm wide, but witty, 0.40ct diamond where a pearl would be expected to sit.
Today, pinned to a cashmere jumper or a neckline, it’s still witty and still effortlessly chic.
