Victorian magic captured in a single gesture — a hand extended in devotion, protection, and quiet luck, blooming with vivid pink-red rubies. This 18k gold and silver bar brooch, 10.3 grams of antique artistry, tells its story through detail: the sculpted hand, its ruby bracelet linked to a tiny padlock chain, and a sleeve that unfurls into a fan of graduating old mine-cut diamonds. At the fingertip, a rose-cut diamond glints like a ring, while the ruby flower below centers itself around a single sparkling diamond. Old cut diamonds finish the composition at each end of the bar, lending balance and light.
Measuring 58mm in length, the brooch holds approximately 2.00 carats of richly colored rubies and about 0.80 carat of old cut diamonds in G–I color and SI clarity. A C-clasp and 3mm bail complete its thoughtful construction. Preserved in beautiful antique condition.
A Victorian emblem of devotion and renewal — still luminous more than a century after it was first worn.
