DATE: Victorian, c.1890

An fantastic Victorian celestial brooch crafted as a shooting star and crescent moon entwined. Dating from the 1890s, it's set with sapphires, dreamy natural pearls, and old cut diamonds- the diamond set within beautifully worked silver settings. The crescent is sleek and slender, set with a row of graduated diamonds. The shooting star is set with an old cut diamonds, while three curved knife-edge streaks follow with sapphires and pearls. Crafted in 15 karat gold and silver, it looks great worn on its side or upright- how will you wear it? 

The sky's mysterious nature intrigued the Victorian, and it represented the realm of dreams, magic, and the hidden aspects of life.
