An exceptionally pretty and incredibly romantic Victorian era crescent moon brooch, circa 1880, crafted of 14k rose gold and the most vividly powder pink rubies. Its openwork design leaves the graduated, well-matched rubies open backed, simply framed by gold and held floating by delicate prongs. The scalloped shaped segments in which each ruby has been carefully and artfully placed terminate in ornate, scrolled flourishes at either end of the arc. This brooch was made to hang downwards, as a sizable trembling, articulated star has been attached to the bottom. It dangles freely and whimsically with every movement; studded with its own ruby and adorned by a spray of central foliate cluster. A unique rendition. In excellent, untouched antique condition. Heavy and well constructed at 14.1 grams. It measures 1.5 inches in length, and 1.25 inches in height.
