Victorian Brooches
VICTORIAN STYLE
The reign of Queen Victoria encapsulates a quickly evolving period of history — and jewelry styles were no exception. No single period has seen such a diverse group of jewelry attributed to it than the Victorian era. Today, there is a vast collection of authentic antique Victorian jewelry and watches on 1stDibs.
Victorian jewelry is named after Queen Victoria, whose reign lasted from 1837 to 1901, making her the second longest-ruling monarch. (She was surpassed by Queen Elizabeth II in 2015.) During this time, different styles of fashion and jewelry came and went. Thanks to our fascination with royalty and swoon-worthy melodramas like Netflix’s The Crown — which is rife with evocative fashion, jewelry and interiors — and the 2017 feature film Victoria & Abdul, we are all familiar with her story. After the death of Victoria’s father and three childless uncles, she ascended to the throne at age 18. In 1840, Queen Victoria married the love of her life, her first cousin Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha.
Queen Victoria loved serpentine jewels, and she had even more power to shape trends than Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle do today. The British monarch’s best-known piece in this mold is the gold coiled-snake engagement ring she received from Prince Albert — the sinuous reptile was considered a symbol of everlasting love.
The Queen's 63-year reign has been divided by historians into the Romantic period, the early happy years, circa 1837–60; the Grand period, marked by the deaths of the Queen’s mother and husband, circa 1860–80; and the late Victorian or Aesthetic period, which lasted from about 1880 until 1901 and ushered in the Belle Époque. Queen Victoria wore her heart on her sleeve, and her fashion and jewelry reflected her emotions.
Romantic period jewelry, which featured common decorative motifs and was embellished with seed pearls, coral and turquoise, was a celebration of the young monarch’s love. Everything changed with the death of Prince Albert, and the Grand period is most often associated with mourning jewelry. Jewelry was smaller, lighter and more dainty during the late Victorian period. During this era, diamonds came into fashion, and semiprecious gems such as amethysts and opals became prevalent, too. Using gemstones for their natural beauty and not their worth was something that jewelers of the era felt passionate about, and this ideology would really become relevant in Art Nouveau jewelry.
Find a collection of authentic antique Victorian jewelry — from rings, necklaces and brooches to a range of other accessories — on 1stDibs.

Victorian Dove Bird Swallow Ruby Pearl Peace Pendant Necklace Gold Laurel Wreath
Located in New York, NY
This is a gorgeous antique Victorian Dove Swallow Bird of Peace Pendant Necklace adorned with a Pearl in it its mouth, a Ruby eye, and seed pearls throughout creating the white feathers of the dove. The lavaliere pendant has an extraordinary three-dimensional design of a flying dove bird carrying the pearl offering of peace in its mouth set within a laurel wreath motif in 10 Karat Gold. The eye of the bird is a lovely Ruby cabochon. The laurel wreath has stunning gold work with wonderful details of the individual leaves.
During the Victorian period jewelry with images of birds was given to lovers to signify constancy over time. The swallow is symbolic of peace, cheerfulness and free spirit. The Dove is symbolic of peace. The work is exquisite with elegant pearls creating the feathers of the bird, the ruby eye and the three dimensional flowing design of the flying bird. The bird holds a pearl in its beak. The piece is one of the most beautiful antique animal, bird motif jewels we have seen. It is antique and dates to the Belle Epoque, Victorian period. The romantic bird pendant dances delightfully around the neck and creates a conversation piece to be passed on for generations. Animal and bird inspired jewels are all the rage today and finding one with so much romance is just a dream. The pendant dates to circa 1850 - 1900.

Located in Versailles, FR
For sale a rare arrow brooch dated from the 19th century, the Victorian era. This brooch features a stunning yellowish-gray cat-eye chrysoberyl cabochon in the center: a precious phenomenon gemstone that displays a line in the center of the stone when exposed to light. The cat-eye measures 10mm in height and 7mm in width. The cabochon is framed with a circle of white seed pearls, as well as the tail and the point of the arrow.

Arrows have been used in sentimental jewelry for centuries and have had various symbolic meanings over time. In the Victorian era, arrows were associated with sentimentality and affection. Arrows were often incorporated into jewelry pieces, such as brooches and lockets, as a symbol of devotion and fidelity. They were also used in jewelry to signify direction, pointing the wearer towards their true love or guiding them through the journey of life.
