Antique Crescent Moon Brooch with Diamonds and Pearls, c. 1905

The moon has long been associated with silver. Since the end of the 19th century, German silversmiths have even used a moon-shaped hallmark to confirm the authenticity of the material. And here, too, it is a layer of silver that rests on the gold and gives this crescent-shaped moon its colour. Around 0.80 ct of diamonds and seven pearls complete the ethereal glow of the crescent moon. Since the end of the 19th century, we have frequently encountered the motif of the crescent moon - not only in jewellery, but in photographs, drawings and paintings. As a so-called "paper moon" - a crescent moon cut out of cardboard or wood - the moon even served as a prop in traveling photo studios: most people at the time did not yet have their own camera and had themselves photographed sitting on the moon at fairs. Many of these photographs have survived to this day as collector's items. The brooch in the shape of a crescent moon is a fine piece of Belle Époque jewellery and was created at the beginning of the 20th century, as evidenced by its already very fine, filigree shape. It is a typical piece of this "beautiful era" and came to us from the south of England.
