Elegant Victorian era gold diamond pearl onyx star locket brooch

Whether you are an astronomy buff or not, the celestial antique jewels are alluring enough to catch any antique jewelry enthusiast’s eye.

In front of us a very elegant star brooch with a locket on its back. The diamonds on the star are beautifully incrusted into an elegant onyx, a beautiful pearl is added into the center of the star. There are in total 18 rose cut diamonds, making the large star very bright and sparkling.

Black onyx has been showing up in antique jewelry, often as a dramatic contrast against platinum and diamonds: For this piece, the onyx evokes night skies. Sometimes melancholy, always mysterious, this black gem is so elegant which makes the piece particularly charming.

The back of the brooch is a locket, into which you can insert something you treasured and wear it close to your heart. This little detail shows how sentimental this piece is!

Measurements and Condition

In very good antique condition align with its age; no choc on the surface of the onyx.

There is a small gold dot on the side border of the brooch mysteriously, which I do not know what it is made for.

No hallmark on the brooch so the mounting of the locket at the back is acid tested for 9K, the pin is in metal.
