Victorian scottish agate, rare bow silver brooch

A very striking Victorian silver Scottish agate pebble brooch in the form of a Bow c1860s

Scottish agate / pebble jewellery became very popular in the mid 1800s Prince Albert and Queen Victorian purchased Balmoral Castle in Scotland in 1852, Queen Victoria brought back souvenirs from her stay and of course what Queen Victoria did many others would follow and agate brooches and other jewellery became all the rage!

I love the shape of this bow brooch - so very wearable today - a real timeless piece and quite rare to find

The brooch is set with a beautiful array of Agate creating a colourful striped effect to the bow

The brooch is unmarked but fully tested as sterling silver

Weight: 7.2 grams

Dimensions: 25mm high x 39mm wide

Condition: Very good antique condition - some tiny nibbles to the edges of some agates - only visible under magnification - no cracks to the agate- they are lovely and shiny, a lovely old patina to the silver at the rear. The pin has a slight bend in it
