全部拍賣 / Jewelry & Gems / Antique Crescent Moon Brooch with Pearls in Gold, British, c. 1890


Celestial bodies were among the most popular jewellery motifs at the end of the 19th century. Crescent moons, suns and stars shone on the necklines of ball gowns and in elaborate updos, set in diamonds for the evening and in gold for the day. This crescent moon was created during the late Victorian era in England. The simple basic shape of the moon, executed in rich yellow gold, is enhanced by the rich ornamentation. Fine beads, so-called granulations, are applied all around. Twisted gold wires are set into the openwork basic shape and enrich the surface with plays of light and shadow. A row of graduated beads follows the basic shape in the middle of the crescent. These details originate from the fashion of the so-called archaeological style, which revived Victorian gold jewelry with antique techniques from the middle of the century. We discovered this beautiful brooch in England. This is also where it was made, as evidenced by the typical 15-carat gold alloy, which was only used until 1932.
