FAQs

Insect jewellery, including butterfly brooches, gained widespread popularity during the Victorian and Edwardian eras, symbolising rebirth, transformation, and a fascination with nature.

Diamond brooches from this era were commonly crafted in platinum, silver-topped gold, or yellow gold, featuring hand-cut diamonds set in pierced or open-backed settings.

Authentic period pieces often exhibit hand-carved pierced work, milgrain detailing, period-style diamond cuts, and original fastenings such as C-clasps with attached safety chains.

A diamond insect brooch can be worn on the lapel of a tailored blazer, fastened to a silk scarf, pinned to an evening clutch, or grouped on a coat collar.

Clean the piece gently using a soft-bristled brush, warm water, and mild soap, avoiding harsh chemicals, ultrasonic cleaners, or submerging delicate settings.
