Victorian Scottish Silver Banded Agate Cross & Anchor Brooch

Prix unitaire

Taxes incluses.

An exquisite antique Victorian Scottish banded agate brooch set in the centre with an carved agate cross forming the arms of a superbly detailed anchor. Brooches of this type were traditionally worn to attach tartan to the shoulder and this one is a particularly fine example.

A classic symbol of hope and faith this anchor and cross brooch is beautifully crafted in sterling silver in a ring form and set in semi-translucent agate with dramatic black, white & brown banding. The crossed anchor is beautifully engraved and has silver rope wrapped around it. It is pegged into the front of the brooch so it is raised which draws your eyes to the cut out centre and gives a fabulous open and dimensional effect that is both elegant and super stylish.

Super quality and absolutely gorgeous, this striking and unusual antique Scottish jewel has hidden meaning and is steeped in sentiment, the perfect accent piece that will invite tons of compliments!

These genuinely antique Scottish brooches are becoming very scarce. They were the height of fashion in the 1870's during the "Scottish Pebble" jewellery craze that occurred when Queen Victoria purchased Balmoral Castle in Scotland. She set a fashion trend for Scottish jewellery which became highly collectable and it still remains that way today!
