A superb quality late Victorian period 14K sunburst brooch c1895-1900. This 14k yellow gold large sunburst convertible pendant brooch measures 1-1/4" in diameter, and has 40 lovely graduated natural pearls mounted on curved rays of the sun shaped brooch interspersed with large pearls on gold stalks. The pearls measure from 2.5mm - 3mm, and the pearls on stalks measure 3mm each. All pearls are of excellent creamy white lustre and they are superbly matched. The pin itself has a pin with c-clasp, which can be unscrewed and completely removed with a threaded finger screw in the shape of the number 8. There is a swing-up loop (in 10K yellow gold) separately attached to allow the pin to be worn as a pendant, or to be mounted on a hatpin or pinned into the hair for evening wear. There is a 22 point round European cut genuine diamond (SI-1 clarity, G-H colour), bezel set in the center. The craftsmanship is simply superb, this pin is of the highest quality. Convertible pins were usually only sold in quite high-end jewellery shops. Intact convertible pins are seldom encountered, and this example is in excellent condition, with no chips, cracks, dents, alterations, losses, repairs or damage other than a tiny bit of bending to the tip of the pin. It comes with a recent independent gemmologist's appraisal, with a value of $1700 CAD. Shipping is insured surface or air mail or FedEx. We do ship internationally. All of our prices are in $US.

A classic 14k Victorian period agate brooch c1870-80. This is a 14k yellow gold pin with a hand engraved setting, with fancy claws holding a polished oval gray-white agate, which has almost the look of a moonstone. This natural agate stone has ripples resembling fish scales when it is held up to the light, and it is semi-translucent. The polished center is concave and it has inset gold rivets; this pin measures 1-5/8" x 1-1/4" and it closes with the original c-clasp. It is unmarked, but has been tested as 14K, and is guaranteed to be 14k gold. This item is in excellent condition with no chips, cracks, losses, corrosion, repairs or damage; the stone has the expected slight internal cleaves visible only under back lighting. A beauty, and a wonderful gift for a fan of Victorian jewellery. Trackable surface shipping starts at $12.50 (to the US - other spots may vary). We do ship internationally. All of our prices are in $US. Please note that we DO NOT accept Paypal.
