Ascarce Victorian era brooch, modeled in 18k yellow gold and silver, that takes the form of two witches' hearts.These bewitched hearts overlap in a way that suggests they are bound together— one is set with natural, old cut rubies, while the other is set with glinty rose cut diamonds. A natural pearl rests at thecleave of each heart. This brooch has a long pin stem, and it fastens with a curly c-catch.We think thisis especiallyelegant and graphic,as it is nottopped with a bow or a crown!This is French—it bears a very small series of hallmarks on the c-catch.
