Superb example of a Victorian Scottish agate brooch. Designed in the shape of a dirk, it was originally used to adorn the tartans. It is Victorian, circa 1860 and is sterling, and hand engraved. The agates are a very lovely choice of mauves and bloodstone. The top agate is quite a unique choice of color and well chosen to offset the other three agates. The three contrasting stones are faceted crystals which have been foiled back for color and set in silver collets. This dirk is extremely well do ...click for details

This brooch is Scottish,circa 1860. It is wonderful figural interpretation of a bow crafted by a true artisan. Most 19th century Scottish brooches have traditional designs, and few were creatively expressive. Antique Scottish brooches are becoming scarce, but finding a figural brooch such as this is rare indeed. All the agates were cut and shaped like a true ribbon. The photo does not capture the finesse of the lapidary nor the beauty of the choice of agates. Notice the blend of color and the m ...click for details

This Victorian,Scottish agate brooch is circa 1860. It is designed as a basket weave crated by two colors of agate. The affect is quite beautiful and most unusual. The central agate is actually a striated agate, almost the color of straw. This was a carefully planned and beautifully executed design by a skilled lapidary. The agates are placed on slate backs and then a simple sterling bezel was created. The choice was simplicity of silver work with emphasis on the stones and this was certainly ac ...click for details
