Description

A really gorgeous genuine Victorian diamond brooch with a swallow bearing a heart, flying through a crescent. Generally these would have been either a wedding day or engagement brooch or a sweetheart brooch from someone who was away from home like in the armed services, as the swallow represents loyalty and returning home to a loved one....

The crescent is set with old cut diamonds and the body of the swallow with Antique rose cut diamonds, the bird has small ruby eyes. The top is silver is is common with the period over the top of at least 9K yellow gold.

The back has a removable screw, allowing for attachment. The swallow is approx 3cms wing tip to wing tip the crescent is approx 2.50cms (25mms) across and 25mms up and downways. The crescent and the swallow are a nice medium size, great for a showstopping pendant/necklace!!! Total weight approx. 7.9g.

No stones are missing and it's a really beautiful piece in good condition for it's age, it would make a stunning diamond necklace/pendant conversion.
