Victorian 18K gold diamond star blue enamel brooch
Discover the exceptional craftsmanship with this French antique 18K gold brooch (double French owl hallmarks), adorned with beautiful royal blue enamel.
At its heart lies a radiant diamond star centerpiece, featuring a large rose-cut diamond of approximately 0.65ct. The star’s brilliance is beautifully contrasted by the guilloché enamel. The application of enamel on guilloché patterns is particularly challenging, requiring precision to preserve the underlying detail also extreme attention so the enamel didn't crack during the firing.
Encircling the enamel panel is a delicate yellow gold heart motif, further enhanced by a halo of natural pearls (approximately 3mm in diameter) exuding a soft, lustrous shimmer. This harmonious design embraces the symbolism of the star—a beacon of guidance, inspiration, and divine connection.
Preserved in very good antique condition, this brooch released from our personal collection is a rare find, embodying the finest artistry of the 19th century. A true treasure for any antique jewelery lovers or for anyone who is looking for a gift really special and meaningful.

Chère Jade,
Quelle magnifique surprise que cette bague! La recevoir m'a fait énormément plaisir. Vous avez fait preuve d'une grande attention aux petits détails, et cela se voit. Le colis était joliment emballé et a été expédié rapidement. J'ai particulièrement apprécié la réactivité de votre communication ainsi que le petit mot et les délicieux biscuits qui l'accompagnaient, quel régal!
Encore une fois, un grand merci pour votre professionnalisme et à bientôt!
This is the most beautiful pendant/charm in my collection. The way the enamel catches the light is *chefs kiss*. Great customer service and the shipping was so fast! Such an amazing piece. It was wrapped beautifully. Will definitely be buying from this shop again :))
Be still my heart, this ring is breathtakingly elegant!
Jade has been kind, helpful, and professional from the very first message I’d sent her. She promptly sent me pictures of 2 rings worn together on her finger so I could decide whether they would make a nice bridal set. When I received my package, she had everything wrapped up so pretty, and she had included a pack of Bonne Maman cookies I had grown up eating (I am a French expat).
I have found the one and only place I ever want to purchase my jewelry from, and I definitely hope I get to meet Jade in person on my next trip home 🇫🇷!).
Merçi Jade, de tout mon cœur 💍
