Scottish pebble jewellery, including Peterhead granite pieces, gained immense popularity during the Victorian era, particularly in the mid-to-late 19th century following Queen Victorias patronage of Balmoral and the Scottish Highlands.

These pieces typically feature native Scottish stones such as granite, jasper, bloodstone, and agate, cut and polished into geometric or symbolic shapes, and mounted in silver or silver-gilt settings.

Authentic pieces often exhibit period-appropriate closures such as a C-clasp and tubular hinge, hand-cut stone facets with natural mineral variations, and traditional metalwork techniques characteristic of the 19th century.

Antique brooches can be pinned to the lapel of a tailored blazer, fastened at the neckline of a blouse, or used to secure a wool scarf, adding a touch of historical texture to contemporary outfits.

Store stone jewellery in a dry, padded box away from direct sunlight, clean gently with a soft dry cloth, and avoid immersion in water or exposure to harsh chemical cleaners to protect the stone and metal settings.
