FAQs

Beyond wearing them pinned to heavy wool lapels, scarves, or hats, antique brooches can be displayed inside shadow boxes or mounted on velvet panels as miniature works of art for gallery walls.

Store pieces in a dry, tarnish-resistant lined box away from direct sunlight, clean the silver gently with a specialist microfibre polishing cloth, and avoid submerging natural agate or soft stones in chemical cleaning solutions.

Authentic pieces usually exhibit period-appropriate closures such as a C-clasp and tubular hinge, robust sterling silver settings without modern foreign hallmarks, and tightly fitted, hand-polished natural stones.

These items typically feature locally sourced Scottish hardstones such as agate, jasper, and bloodstone, set in solid silver mounts, often complemented by central amethysts and detailed hand-engraved thistles or Celtic knotwork.

Scottish pebble jewellery gained immense popularity during the Victorian era, largely due to Queen Victorias fondness for Balmoral and the Scottish Highlands, which sparked a widespread cultural fascination with Celtic revival motifs and local stones.
