Victorian Turquoise & Pearl Heart Brooch, Spectrum Antiques
Victorian Turquoise & Pearl Heart Brooch, Spectrum Antiques
£900.00
Description
A charming Victorian sweetheart brooch, the centre formed as a heart pavé-set with turquoise cabochons of soft, even blue, surmounted by a ribbon bow set with pearls and flanked by gold foliate sprays, each tipped with a pearl. Every element is a token of affection — the heart for love, the turquoise for the forget-me-not, the pearls for constancy, and the bow that ties them together — making this a quintessential piece of Victorian sentimental jewellery.
Beautifully modelled and full of romantic charm, it wears wonderfully on a lapel or collar, and is exactly the kind of characterful antique brooch that makes such a thoughtful gift.
