Victorian Diamond Arrow Mourning Brooch

Available from Isadora's Antique Jewlery when we last checked. Sold from the shop’s own store; the price there is the one that counts.

Circa 1870. This lovely Victorian memorial 15KT gold brooch features a lock of hair framed with a halo of bead-set, rose-cut diamonds. The arrow motif represents love. Georgians and Victorians honored the memory of their loved ones with keepsake jewelry that often included a place to keep a lock of hair that belonged to the deceased.
