This Edwardian bar brooch originates from the Arts and Crafts period and is composed of 9ct gold, seed pearls, and a turquoise cabochon, presented in gold, cream, and turquoise colours. The design incorporates a safety-pin style mechanism with looped ends, a central floral cluster motif with visible petal mouldings, and a curved leaf-shaped terminal extending from the base of the flower head. The background fabric is textured grey cloth, the brooch is illuminated under directional lighting, and the polished metal surface exhibits subtle light reflections. Measuring 1 cm high, 4 cm wide, and 0.4 cm deep, it is worn as an accessory on clothing. Items of this type are typically collected as antique jewellery or worn on lapels, collars, and scarves to add a decorative element to attire. The construction combines a secure bar pin with fine millegrain details around the gemstones, maintaining the original aesthetic of the period.

FAQs

Popularised during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, bar brooches were designed to secure light fabrics and collars with elegant minimalism. They frequently incorporated floral motifs, seed pearls, and coloured gemstones arranged in symmetrical, delicate configurations.

Brooches from this era commonly featured 9ct or 15ct gold frames combined with natural seed pearls, turquoise cabochons, or amethyst accents. Metals were often hand-worked, with delicate millegrain edges and pin mechanism fittings crafted from steel or gold.

Authentic pieces by Murrle Bennett & Co. are usually stamped with the makers mark MBCo alongside gold quality marks such as 9ct or 15ct. The style typically reflects the British Arts and Crafts movement or German Jugendstil aesthetics, characterised by stylized organic forms.

An antique bar brooch can be pinned to a modern blazer lapel, fastened at the neckline of a button-down shirt, or used to accent a silk scarf. Smaller brooches can also be displayed collectively on framed velvet or fabric pads as decorative wall accents.

Turquoise and seed pearls are porous and sensitive to moisture, cosmetics, and harsh chemicals. Clean gently using a dry, soft lint-free cloth, avoiding liquid submersion or ultrasonic cleaners to protect the integrity of the settings.
