Victorian Ruby and Diamond Crescent Moon Brooch

One of the best antique crescents we've ever had! I adore the thick, graduated line of juicy rubies that make up the majority of this piece. The total carat weight of the rubies is approximately 2.15 carats, and they all have a divine, deep reed color that simply glows. The red stones are bordered on the inside by a thinner line of old mine and rose cut diamonds, H color and SI clarity, which all together total approximately .3 carat. All the stones are backed with 18k yellow gold, and the brooch weighs 9 grams. This piece features both a pin and a bail to be styled in various ways!
