Antique Niello Silver and Rose Gold Crescent Moon with Stars

Edwardian silver brooch (c. 1915). Marked 800S AL.

£175

Description

An antique silver crescent moon brooch with niello, scattered with little stars picked out in rose gold. The warm gold shows up clearly against the near black finish. The back is plain silver, stamped 800, the silver standard used across mainland Europe. Crescent moons were a favourite brooch design in the late 1800s, this is a later piece which still carries the same appeal and charm as its Victorian predecessors. Wear it on a coat lapel, a scarf or a jacket collar, for a more unusual and contemporary look pin it through a chain for some added texture and colour in a stack.
