Victorian Turquoise 15ct Gold Double Heart Lover’s Knot Brooch, Circa 1880’s
An elegant Victorian turquoise and 15ct gold brooch dating to the late 19th century, designed as a pair of beautifully interlocking hearts in a flowing infinity-style arrangement.
The openwork design is set throughout with graduated turquoise cabochons, centred by a geometric crossover motif that gives the piece an unexpectedly modern and sculptural quality. The vivid turquoise contrasts beautifully against the rich tone of the 15ct gold mount, creating a jewel of exceptional visual impact.
Double-heart jewels were cherished during the Victorian period as symbols of enduring love, unity and devotion. This example stands out for the refinement of its execution and its remarkably clean, graphic silhouette, which feels strikingly contemporary even today.
Though created as a brooch, the piece may also be worn as a pendant and is shown suspended from a later gold chain for styling purposes.
A rare and highly wearable Victorian jewel combining romantic symbolism with bold design.
