FAQs

Starburst and celestial motifs gained immense popularity during the Victorian era, heavily influenced by astronomical discoveries, royal mourning traditions, and Queen Victorias own fondness for symbolic adornments.

These pieces typically feature low-carat gold or silver-topped gold settings, enclosing hand-cut diamonds and natural seed pearls secured with fine grain or collet settings.

Authentic pieces often exhibit closed-back settings in older items, hand-cut stones with slightly irregular facets, traditional C-clasps or tubular hinges, and natural signs of age-related wear on the metal and pearls.

An antique brooch can be pinned to the lapel of a tailored blazer, secured at the neckline of a silk blouse, or even mounted inside a shadow box frame as a small art piece on a gallery wall.

Pearls are organic and sensitive to chemicals, perfumes, and moisture; they should be cleaned gently with a soft, dry cloth and stored separately from harder gemstones to prevent scratching.
