This perfectly formed little antique Victorian brooch boasts a beautifully faceted English hematite rectangular gemstone that is just beautiful. The deep grey/black gemstone has a red undertone and a mirror like surface that just sparkles. Hand-crafted in sterling silver in a bamboo design it is an understated and elegant cravat pin that is equally at home on the tie, stock or lapel.
Super quality it has a sturdy pin back so it will happily pin to heavy fabrics and it benefits from a decorative safety chain that adds a touch of sophistication.
A classy Victorian silver brooch in a gemstone you don't see everyday. Great for the gents formal, we did notice these little antique cravat pins making fashionable appearances at the Cheltenham Gold Cup horse race this year!
