Victorian Ruby, Sapphire & Pearl Double Heart Brooch with Safety Chain | c.1880–1900 | 15ct Gold
£3,750.00
A romantic and beautifully preserved Victorian double heart brooch, dating to circa 1880–1900. Crafted in 15ct gold with silver-topped settings, this charming jewel features two intertwined hearts — a timeless symbol of love, devotion, and eternal friendship.
One heart is adorned with vivid natural rubies, while the other is set with rich blue natural sapphires. At the center of each heart rests a luminous natural pearl, displaying a silky glow that beautifully complements the vibrant gemstones. The contrast between pink-red and royal blue creates a striking yet elegant appearance.
Adding to its rarity, the brooch retains its original safety chain, a desirable feature found on fine Victorian jewellery. Delicate openwork details and graceful proportions showcase the exceptional craftsmanship of the period.
A wonderfully sentimental piece, equally suited for collectors and for wearing today.
