Victorian Old Mine Cut Diamond Crescent Moon with Bow Brooch
About the Item
This enchanting brooch is shaped like a crescent moon adorned with a romantic bow. It is silver topped and gold backed, encrusted with 56 stunning Old Mine Cut diamonds. The brooch embodies everything we love about celestial jewelry, capturing the beauty of the night sky with its graceful lines and sparkling stones. The pin’s silver front has accrued a romantic patina that highlights the diamonds with darkened contrast. The diamonds are prong set with sweeping carriage work along the outer edge of the brooch and a lot of care taken into the placement of the smaller diamonds within the bow element.
The front of the brooch is silver, the rest of the brooch tests as 14k gold. At some point, the brooch was rhodium dipped, so only glimmers of gold shine through on the back of the piece.
The brooch contains 56 natural antique Old Mine Cut diamonds. The diamonds range in size from 5.5 x 4.5 mm (the largest stone within the crescent moon) to 2 mm. They range in color from H-K and are mostly near colorless. They range in clarity from SI1 - I, with the majority at SI2. The piece contains approximately 4.25 carats of diamonds.
The piece is marked on the pin stem with the Bigorne mark, a pattern of insects that identifies the piece as French, used from 1838-1984. The same mark is on the c-catch and represents marks for French import.
The brooch measure 2 “ x 1 9/16”. It weighs 14.3 grams.
Circa 1900.

14K Gold Victorian Rose Cut Diamond Drop Necklace with Bow
Located in Venice, CA
At the focal point of this elegant Victorian-era drop necklace are three antique diamonds suspended from a bow and navette shaped bar. The diamonds are Dutch rose cut, with layers of facets cut by hand, making each diamond one-of-a-kind with its own unique way of reflecting light. The largest, bottom diamond appears round, and the diamonds descend in size, with the middle and top diamond taking a more oval shape. The necklace has a 14k gold back and a silver front—a traditional way of mounting jewelry in the Victorian era. The beautiful diamonds rest in a silver backing, so the stones catch the light and reflect it brilliantly.
The diamonds are topped by a bow, which contains seven smaller rose-cut diamonds, surrounded by millegrain details that add subtle texture. A transitional bar connects the bow to the teardrop section, and features an eighth diamond set in a navette shaped mount.
The bow, navette, and diamond trio are articulated, so there is lots of movement while worn, adding to piece’s elegance.
The necklace is circa 1890’s. Kirsten’s Corner has added an antique platinum chain...
