14K Gold Victorian Crescent Moon and Star Convertible Pendant Brooch
About the Item
Circa the Victorian era, this 14k gold crescent moon can be converted into either a brooch or pendant. The moon and star are encrusted with Old Mine Cut and Rose Cut diamonds, with a silver front, rose gold back, and wonderful patina that emphasizes the beauty of the diamonds. Knowing someone might want flexibility in how they wear jewelry, old world craftsmen would create pieces that were convertible. This piece has a bail that unscrews and has two places on the back where a pin attaches. The star can also be removed. Jewelry collectors love a convertible piece because so much labor and attention to detail were required to produce this added level of functionality.
The selection of natural antique diamonds are well-matched and each is unique and intriguing to look at. There are twenty five diamonds that range in size from 4mm - 1mm, a combination of Old Mine Cuts and Rose Cuts. They are near colorless to very light yellow, SI1 in clarity. The estimated carat weight is 1.25 carats.
The pin is marked with “56”. It acids tests as 14k gold, with a silver front. The moon measures 1.75” x 1.25” (including the bail). The piece weighs 10 grams.
A perfect celestial piece to add to your collection.

- 14k Gold and 22k Gold Nugget Crescent Moon PendantLocated in Venice, CAThis crescent moon pendant is from the Alaskan Gold Rush era. The moon is a thin sliver, either a waxing or waning crescent in its moon cycle. On the front of the pendant are pieces of 22k Alaskan gold, which have been carefully soldered on top of a crescent moon 14k gold cutout. The encrusted gold nuggets create a beautiful visual texture. A lovely patina shadows the crevices of the gold, drawing the eye to the unique shape of each nugget. In the center of the pendant is a sliver of fossilized walrus tusk, which was added when the piece was created circa 1910. The sliver of tusk is dimensional, polished into a knife-edge shape, and its colors compliment the pendant’s gold. “Native Gold...Category

- 14K Gold Edwardian Pearl and Sapphire Crescent Moon PendantLocated in Venice, CAThis elongated crescent moon contains graduated alternating pearls and sapphires. The pearls are half-drilled and attached with a post from the back, while the sapphires are bezel set into gold settings that appear cup-like when viewed from the side. The sapphires are a dark shade of blue and have minor inclusions that indicate they are natural. The cut of the sapphires is an old cut with high tables—a beautiful cut with lots of the depth that reveals the age of these antique gemstones. Celestial jewelry was popular during the Victorian and Edwardian eras. This piece was originally a pin; we converted it to have a 14k gold bail and jump ring that allows it to dangle. We love that within this crescent moon, the dark blue of the sapphires evoke a midnight sky. A wonderful celestial piece that conveys moon, stars, and sky. The pendant weighs 4.5 grams and acid tests as 14k. At 3 1/8”, it has a nice long length, and is 1/8” thick. The bail is 5 x 7 mm. There are 12 sapphires that range in size from 2.75 - 1.25 mm and equal 1.25 carats. The 13 pearls range in size from 3.5 - 2.4 mm. The long length and shape of the crescent moon fit nicely next to other pendants, making this a great piece for stacking. It’s shown here with other celestial pieces, also available in our shop.
