Antique 2.80ct Ruby, 0.50ct Diamond and 9ct Rose Gold Crescent Brooch Circa 1910

1900 - 1920
For Sale by AC Silver
Description

A stunning, fine and impressive antique Edwardian 2.80 carat ruby, 0.50 carat diamond and 9 carat rose gold crescent shaped brooch; part of our diverse jewellery collection.

This stunning, fine and impressive antique crescent brooch has been crafted in 9ct rose gold.

The pierced decorated crescent shaped frame is embellished with nine pavé set graduated cushion cut rubies.

The feature gemstones alternate with eighteen pavé set Old European round cut diamonds.

The impressive ruby crescent brooch secures to the reverse with a hinged pin, and benefits from the added security of a hinged safety catch; the incorporated safety clip to the reverse of the pin indicates the high quality of the piece.

This antique ruby brooch has been independently tested using state of the art technology (Niton XL2 Analyzer) and verified as 9 carat gold.

This impressive brooch is supplied with an IDGL diamond and gemstone grading report card, in addition to a ruby report card and certificate supplied by the Gemmological Certification Services, London*.

Such crescent brooches embellished with untreated rubies are becoming increasingly difficult to locate.

An Edwardian ruby crescent brooch combines romantic symbolism with historical elegance. Ideal for collectors of Edwardian jewellery and those drawn to the celestial crescent motif, it makes a refined and meaningful addition to any collection.

NOTE: * This documentation accredits the rubies originating in Thailand/Cambodia and certifies that the gemstone shows no indications of heating.

Images do not always reflect the true colour and brilliance of gemstones and diamonds. The video however provides a truer representation of the actual colour and showcases each stone in this ruby crescent brooch.

Condition

This stunning antique brooch is exceptional quality, set with stunning rubies displaying fine colour, brilliance and presence.

The supporting diamonds display a fine white colour and brilliance.

The brooch is an exceptional gauge of gold and is in exceptional condition.

Reflections in photographs may detract from the true representation of this example of antique ruby jewellery.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Crescent moon brooches gained widespread popularity during the Victorian and Edwardian periods, often given as token gifts symbolising change, new beginnings, and feminine power.

Edwardian crescent pieces were commonly crafted from rose gold, yellow gold, or platinum, and set with graduating gemstones such as natural rubies, diamonds, sapphires, or seed pearls.

Authentic period brooches generally feature hand-cut gemstones, openwork galleries, period-appropriate C-clasps or safety pin mechanisms, and hallmark stamps indicating gold purity.

While primarily worn on clothing lapels, scarves, or hats, antique jewellery can also be displayed on velvet-lined dressers or framed within glass shadow boxes in a modern interior.

Clean the brooch using a soft cloth and warm soapy water, avoiding harsh chemicals or ultrasonic cleaners that can compromise natural gemstones or historical metal mounts.
