Edwardian 18ct Gold Ruby and Diamond Crescent Moon BroochA very fine Edwardian ruby and diamond brooch in the shape of a crescent moon. Although crescent moons and stars were fashionable in the Georgian era, they were particularly popular in the 19th Century and the Romantic Period (the early years of Queen Victorias reign). They were then popular again during the Aesthetic Period (after the Queen finally came out of her 20 year mourning for Prince Albert). The Edwardians, inspired by Queen Alexandra, wore
A very fine Edwardian ruby and diamond brooch in the shape of a crescent moon.Although crescent moons and stars were fashionable in the Georgian era, they were particularly popular in the 19th Century and the Romantic Period (the early years of Queen Victoria’s reign). They were then popular again during the Aesthetic Period (after the Queen finally came out of her 20 year mourning for Prince Albert). The Edwardians, inspired by Queen Alexandra, wore crescents with wild abandon, sometimes pinning dozens of brooches to a single bodice.
Crescent moons in antique jewellery symbolise “new beginnings”. As the moon changes, and when it turns into a full moon, it represents the ebb and flow of life - thus a crescent in the 19th Century was associated with weddings and births (and later, honeymoons). Rubies are the stones of July.
This brooch looks as good on man as a woman - and sparkles away delightfully.
