Victorian Gold Star Brooch with Opal and Diamonds

This exquisite star brooch is a remarkable survivor from the Victorian era, a time when interest in spirituality, the heavens, and astrology inspired the creation of celestial jewelry. Crafted in 14k yellow gold, the brooch features an elegant eight-pointed star design with a stunning octagonal opal at its center. This opal showcases a vivid display of rainbow colors that beautifully complements the piece's eight-sided shape. 

Old mine-cut diamonds set at each point of the star surround the opal, adding a delightful sparkle to the design. The brooch measures just over an inch across and was originally designed to be worn on a lapel. However, it can easily be converted into a pendant—please contact us for details.

Details: Victorian 14k yellow gold brooch set with a 1.75ct white opal (Australian) and 1.00ct total weight of old mine cut diamonds (SI-I1 GH), circa 1880.
