About the Item

Superb quality antique Etruscan Revival gold and cabochon garnet Greek key motif disk brooch.

The style became popular in Anglo-Saxon England where it was thought to have been introduced by migrations from the Scandinavian Countries. These brooches were used as clothes fasteners and were among the most prominent status symbols due to their high visibility, usually on the shoulder of the wearer. In the 19th century disc or circle brooches took on a more romantic meaning as symbols of eternal love.
