Description
A
beautiful piece, indicative of the Aesthetic Movement
which was heavily influenced by Princess Alexandra,
Queen Victoria's daughter in law.
Crescent
moons and stars popularise this era which began circa 1880,
and this bar brooch is a shining example of the late Victorian's
penchant for astronomy.
The
Diamonds are Old European Cut and are good
quality. Under scrutiny one does appear to be a slightly
later replacement, although this is not immediately apparent.
The Diamonds have a total weight of just under .20
Carats and are traditionally set into Silver to enhance
their colour. They are perfectly complemented by the Creamy
natural Pearls which are mounted into "cup"
settings and adorn the centre and both ends of the Bar. The
bar itself is unmarked Gold, more than likely
15 or 18 Carat.
A superb quality piece
in very good condition.
It
measures 36mm in length.
Price:
£1,195.00 (approx $2,060.00 USD)
