| /

This elegant Victorian 9ct gold knife-edge bar brooch is a testament to the fine craftsmanship of the period. A timeless piece featuring a deep red, oval-cut garnet, securely set in a refined four-prong setting, allowing the gemstone to capture the light beautifully. The gold has developed a warm antique patina, and the original C-clasp and pin mechanism remain in excellent working order.

The garnet, symbolising love and passion, makes this brooch a meaningful gift for a loved one. Perfectly balancing minimalism and sophistication, this brooch was designed to complement the high-necked garments and lace details typical of Victorian fashion.
