Victorian Style French Jet Cameo Brooch
Item highlights
Seller's description
This wonderful Victorian revival cameo brooch is fashioned skilfully from black French jet. The carved high-relief cameo is impeccably rendered and depicts the profile of a classical woman, crowned with ivy leaves woven into her hair.
French jet became immensely popular during the Victorian era as an elegant and accessible alternative to Whitby jet. Prized for its deep black sheen and light weight, it was widely used in mourning and sentimental jewellery. Roman-style Cameos were also highly sought after during this time and often depicted Goddesses and characters from mythology, with ivy motifs representing eternal love and remembrance.
This fabulous Victorian-inspired French jet brooch is a captivating piece for collectors and lovers of Victorian design. It’s polished and smooth, with a metal pin and locking safety catch at the back to hold it secure.
