A beautifully romantic Victorian antique brooch, formed as an open heart and set in warm 9 carat gold.
Created with simplicity, the heart is traced with a row of softly lustrous pearls, each one carefully set to emphasise the gentle curves of the design. Pearls were deeply cherished in the Victorian era, symbolising purity, love, and sentiment, making heart shaped jewels such as this especially meaningful tokens of affection.
The openwork form gives the brooch a light, graceful presence, while the 9 carat gold setting provides a gentle warmth that perfectly complements the pearls’ soft glow.
A timeless and tender Victorian jewel, full of symbolism and charm, and as wearable today as it was when first gifted over a century ago.
