A magnificent late 19th-century brooch, decorated with natural red coral cabochons, hand-carved into floral shapes, set in a double frame and braided hair. It represents a highly prized type of sentimental jewelry dating from the late Georgian or early Victorian period.

The brooch combines hairdressing techniques with the use of carved coral, both materials closely linked to devotional and commemorative art. The metal setting, possibly gilded, retains its warm patina and features a horizontal pin and a C-shaped hook clasp, typical of the period.

During the 19th century, hair jewelry was common as a sign of mourning or as a tribute to loved ones. Coral, with its intense color and protective symbolism, lent it an additional emotional weight. This piece was undoubtedly an intimate amulet, carefully preserved and full of personal significance.

Ideal for vintage jewelry collectors, lovers of symbolism, or as a unique piece with a story for special occasions.

Things you should know

What you are buying (important)

We sell antique and vintage items, not new or freshly manufactured products. Due to their age and previous use, they may show signs of wear, marks, scratches, small losses, or variations typical of the passage of time. These characteristics are common in pieces with history and are part of their condition.

We recommend that you review the photographs carefully, as they show the actual condition of the piece. If you need to confirm any details before purchasing, please write to us.

Photos and color

The photographs are taken with artificial light, so the color may vary slightly depending on your screen and lighting. If color is a deciding factor for you, we can send you additional photographs taken in natural light to get as close as possible to the true tone.

Patina and cleaning

Many pieces have a patina as a natural consequence of the passage of time. We do not remove it, as it may have taken decades to form and, in many cases, contributes to the character and appearance of the piece.

If you decide to clean or polish a piece, do so with caution and keeping the material in mind. Improper cleaning can alter its surface, patina, appearance, and in some cases, its value. If you need guidance on cleaning a specific material, contact us and we will help you.
