Victorian Garnet Buttons Set of Three | 15ct Gold | Antique Cabochon Garnet Buttons with Original Box
£585.00
A charming set of three Victorian antique buttons, crafted in 15ct gold and set with natural cabochon garnets of rich crimson-red colour.
Dating from the late Victorian period, these elegant buttons showcase the refined craftsmanship of the era. Each button is topped with a beautifully polished natural garnet cabochon displaying deep, glowing colour and remarkable translucency when viewed in the light.
Garnets were highly prized throughout the Victorian era, symbolising devotion, protection, passion, and enduring affection. Their rich red hue made them a favourite gemstone for both jewellery and decorative dress accessories.
An especially desirable feature of this set is the survival of the original antique presentation box, allowing these pieces to remain together as they have for more than a century.
Whether collected as original antique dress accessories, displayed in a jewellery cabinet, or repurposed into bespoke jewellery creations, these Victorian garnet buttons offer exceptional character and historical charm.
