Description:  Victorian garnet brooch that is unique and bold.  The brooch consists of two crescent moons decorated with flat cut garnets.  Dangling from each end of the large crescent moon is a garnet set in a star shaped bezel.  Suspended from the articulated center of the brooch are three flat cut garnet leading to a large round garnet drop.  The overall effect is stunning!  The back of the garnets are open to allow the light to reflect through the garnets.  This is one of the most unique garnet brooches that I have seen.  Setting is a low karat rose gold.
