Victorian Boxed Pearl & Ruby Owl Brooch
A truly rare and wondrous novelty Victorian owl brooch, beautifully modelled in flight and set throughout with luminous split pearls. The owl is captured with its wings fully outstretched, delicately decorated with graduating split pearls. Two rich cabochon ruby eyes give this little bird an extraordinary sense of life, while rose cut diamonds accent its eyes with a subtle antique sparkle that catch the light and seem to bring the piece alive.
Owls have carried powerful symbolism for thousands of years. Closely associated with wisdom, intuition and protection, they are creatures of the night, able to see through darkness and traditionally representing the ability to find one’s way when the path ahead is unclear.
Mounted in 18ct gold and finished with its original pin and ‘C’ catch fitting, this brooch is made all the more special by the survival of its beautiful fitted antique case. Symbolic and ever so beautifully crafted with love and a careful hand, this owl heirloom was meant for those who still believe in magic.
“The world is full of magic things, patiently waiting for our senses to grow sharper.”
~ W.B. Yeats
