Antique Russian 14k Sapphire & Rose Cut Diamond Anchor Pin

Sold out

If you would like your item gift wrapped, please select before adding to cart.

Details: This weighty and finely made antique 14kt yellow gold anchor pin makes a major statement with sapphire cabochons and old cut diamonds. The diamonds are flush set in gold accented with bead set prongs. The body of the anchor is twisted and has a lovely oxidized patina. The foot of the anchor features a chunky sugar loaf sapphire. A hidden pin sits on the reverse.  This would be a wonderful piece for the lapel of a coat or a waist band.  

The anchor is a common Victorian motif symbolizing hope. A loved one would be sent off on a voyage with a brooch such as this pinned close to the heart. The hope was always for a safe return. 

Measurement: The pin is about 1.75" tall and 1" wide at the widest point. 

Origin: Russian, c. 1870's. 

Note: Chain is sold separately.
