Queen Victoria also loved the opal and proved this by collecting and wearing opals throughout her reign.

Art Nouveau jewelry was born out of the desire to create artistic pieces in contrast to the often beautiful but less imaginative jewelry that had become commonplace in the late Victorian Era. Inspired by the rage in Japanese art and fueled by the International Exposition of 1862, nature in all forms and curvilinear lines began to be interpreted widely in Art Nouveau jewelry. This piece is a fine example of American Art Nouveau. A 14kt yellow gold, peridot and enamel necklace on a tracelink cha ...click for details

A lovely, lightweight and wearable pair of earrings centering an oval garnet surrounded by 12 tiny white seed pearls. Garnets and pearls were quite a popular combination of stones in the Victorian times, the pearls, or in some cases, diamonds, acting as a beautiful accent to the rich wine color of the garnet.
These earrings are suspended from a gold wire back. Probably 14kt and American in origin though the gold has not been tested. Circa 1900. Condition is excellent.

Gifts of this kind were one way to express one's sentiment to a loved one, be it friend or family. These tiny heart earrings, with lovely engraving of leaf and floral design on the front side, are just one example. English in origin and probably 15kt yellow gold (not tested), today these would make the same impr ...click for details
