A beautiful and collectable antique 9ct gold brooch in the shape of the Southern Cross constellation.

Also known as Crux, the Southern Cross is a group of stars visible across the Southern Hemisphere. The star pattern features on the flag of Australia and the Southern Cross is culturally significant for many cultures south of the equator.

Each of the stars are represented by bright, pale blue stones and there is a further floral detail to the centre set with seed pearls.

This brooch dates to the late-Victorian or Edwardian period, c. 1900. It is a beautiful piece of antique design with a fascinating and timeless theme.

Stamped for 9ct gold to the reverse.

The pin is base metal (stamped for gilt.)

In really nice antique condition. It could benefit from a polish. Please be sure to see all of the photos.
