Antique Diamond and Silver Upon Gold Crescent Brooch, 4.00 Carat, circa 1880
About the Item
An antique crescent moon brooch, the body is set with two rows of old mine-cut diamonds, graduating in size, weighing an estimated total of 4.00 carats, grain set in silver, with a plain inner curve and cut down set outer curve, with gold gallery work below, mounted in silver-upon-gold, with a removable pin and later roller catch fitting. The inner curve is numbered 2208, with scratched invoice number -/S2170, circa 1880. In Victorian symbolism the crescent or new moon represented a new relationship. Hopeful it will "wax" into matrimony.

In Victorian symbolism stars represented direction, wisdom and guidance for the spirit. This was inspired by sailors of previous eras who used stars in the night sky as navigation aids. Stars have been popular motifs since the 17th century, with women of the Georgian, Victorian and Edwardian eras adding diamond starbursts to their collections.
