ABOUT THIS JEWELRY

Whenever we think we've seen every kind of Victorian jewelry design imaginable, along comes something like this. We can only muse upon what might have inspired it. Was it an emblem for an unrealized Victorian superhero or just a cool, colorful, and utterly unique geometric composition - in a set, no less? The base of both the earrings and brooch is glass masquerading as agate surrounded by 14K gold frames decorated with twisted wire and granulation. The eye-catching centers appear to be inlaid glass, including goldstone glass, that creates the, um, mosaic of the superhero symbol/novel creation. A uniquity for the bold and the brave. Hand fabricated in 14K yellow gold, circa late-19th century.

About Victorian Jewelry

The eclectic Victorians didn’t limit themselves when it came to motifs and themes—if it struck their fancy, they turned it into jewelry. Sweet and sentimental with a distinct romantic streak, Victorian gems expanded upon their Georgian predecessors. The array of styles that blossomed (sometimes quite literally) during this era endure to this day.

Jewelry Care

As with anything of value, especially sentimental value, taking good care of your vintage and antique jewelry from Lang will enhance its beauty and extend its lifespan. We encourage you to have your jewelry checked and cleaned by us or by your trusted local jeweler every six months, to ensure that each piece is in good wearable condition with all gemstones in place. It’s not uncommon for stones to loosen over time, and it’s much easier to tighten a loose stone than to replace a lost one! As stated in our Repair Policy, we strongly recommend that you allow us to perform any repairs, since our jewelers are specialists in restoring vintage and antique jewelry.
