Fabulous Victorian Diamond Triple Row Crescent Pendant Brooch

Love you to the moon and back!  

Crescent moons in Victorian symbolism signified the idea of change, like new moon changing and growing into a full moon. It also carried a loving message of hope of a new relationship growing and maturing - how wonderfully romantic ! Crescents were often worn by brides on their honeymoon, and would be gifted to them as a wedding present. 

We have a thing for divine diamond crescents and this one is out of this world with its three rows of graduating old mine cut diamonds. Continental European in origin she dates back around 1880. She was originally a brooch with a removable pin and likely also worn on a tiara ! The crescents were usually found as brooches or detachable jewellery sets. She has had a 9 karat rose gold bale added, matching her 14 karat rose gold back (tested). We adore her wonderful design and those old mine cut diamonds are so brilliantly white and sparkly, they are just divine ! So charming and twinkly and full of mystery in their silver pinched settings. Most are estimated colour G with a few H colour and most VVS-VS clarity with a few SI clarity. So stunningly white and bright, just truly fabulous! The estimated total
 weight of the diamonds is 1.81 carats and the largest one is estimated to weigh 0.12 carats. 

The crescent measures 28.25 mm by 27.07 mm and its total length with the bale is 34.67 mm. It weighs 4.9 grams, while its detachable pin weighs an additional 2 grams. We love its size, just absolute perfection and so easy to wear. It is in an amazing antique condition. 

We adore ...... this exquisite diamond moon. It will add celestial magic to your special day and make your every day just as beautiful.
