Victorian era 18K gold ruby diamond cherub miniature brooch
This very sweet 19th-century Victorian brooch, crafted in rich 18k yellow gold, showcases a miniature portrait that captures the sentimentality of the era. At its heart, two playful angels are depicted in a floral garden—one draped in soft pink cloth, the other in gentle purple—both drawn to the blooming pink roses around them. The scene is delicately painted, full of warmth and innocence.
Encircling the portrait is a beautifully engraved frame adorned with a halo of vibrant rubies and sparkling rose-cut diamonds. The rubies—long cherished as tokens of passion and love—pair perfectly with diamonds, symbols of eternal devotion.
A rare and poetic piece, perfect for collectors of fine antique jewelry or anyone drawn to meaningful adornments that tell a story.
