Description

A twinkly antique star brooch formed of tiny faceted cut steels.

Cut-steel jewellery is made from tightly packed steel studs riveted to a metal baseplate in a hugely time-consuming process. The finished effect was designed to reflect the light back from all the tiny faceted surfaces, making the jewellery sparkle like rose-cut diamonds in the 19th century candlelight.

In excellent antique condition.

Size: Approximately 3.8cm diameter.

Weight: 4.7g.

FAQs

Cut steel is extremely susceptible to moisture and humidity, which causes rust; items should be kept strictly dry, stored in acid-free environments, and cleaned only with a dry microfibre cloth without liquid polish.

This versatile accessory can be pinned to modern lapels, heavy wool coats, or velvet display frames, adding historic texture and metallic contrast to understated modern aesthetics.

Authentic pieces typically feature individually riveted faceted studs visible from the reverse, heavier weight due to the solid steel construction, and distinctive grey gunmetal patination without modern glues.

These pieces were crafted using low-carbon steel, where individual studs were hand-faceted on a wheel to catch the light, then individually riveted rather than soldered onto a steel frame.

Georgian cut steel jewellery features small, highly polished steel studs individually faceted and riveted to a backing plate to mimic the sparkle of diamonds, reaching peak popularity during the 18th and early 19th centuries.
