1900 - 1920
Sold 6 November 2024 · Corvidae Antique
This “Edwardian 1911 Diamond and Sapphire Paste Crescent Brooch” found a buyer.

It was listed by Corvidae Antique. Sold pieces stay on Sellingantiques as a record of what has passed through, and the next one is rarely far away.

Description

An attractive antique gold crescent brooch set with 13 beautiful shimmering blue stones in a range of tones. Twelve of the blues are pastes and one tests as a genuine sapphire, all accented with tiny natural diamond chips and set above a decorative pierced gallery in a pleasing circular shape.

The piece is nicely hallmarked for nine-carat gold, Chester, 1911, and is a gently rosy colour.

The brooch is in very good antique condition and fastens with a typical C clasp and a removable safety chain for additional security. One of the tiny diamond chips is vacant but you have to look very hard to see that.

Size: Approximately 3 x 3cm.

Weight: 4.9g.

Edwardian jewellery, spanning the reign of King Edward VII from 1901 to 1910, is characterised by light, airy designs, platinum settings, and the widespread use of diamonds and pearls to create garland and lace motifs.

Traditional materials from this era include platinum, yellow gold, rose gold, natural diamonds, seed pearls, and high-quality glass paste used to replicate precious coloured gemstones.

Authentic pieces typically feature period-appropriate metal hallmarks, hand-cut stones such as old mine or rose cuts, closed-back settings in earlier or transitional pieces, and pin stems that extend beyond the safety catch.

An antique brooch can be pinned to the lapel of a tailored blazer, fastened at the neckline of a blouse, or used to anchor a silk scarf to add historical texture to contemporary outfits.

Paste jewellery should never be submerged in water or cleaned in ultrasonic machines, as moisture can seep behind the foiled backs and discolour the stones; instead, wipe gently with a dry, soft cloth.
