DESCRIPTION:

A rare and striking brooch from the late Victorian era, circa 1890–1900, finely crafted in French silver with a visible hallmark. The brooch takes the form of a spider, its body and legs adorned with intricate star-patterned texturing that creates a dramatic play of light and shadow.

Spiders were a popular motif in 19th-century jewellery, symbolizing mystery, transformation, and protection.
