EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning piece of costume jewellery from the 1800s. Created with jet, a lustrous black gemstone popular during that era, this exquisite accessory is a true testament to the craftsmanship of English School in the 19th century. The focal point of this intricate design is a leaf-shaped brooch, believed to be crafted around the 1860s. Its delicate carving and ornate details make it an exceptional example of feminine adornment. The hands holding this remarkable piece are beautifully decorated with badges and pins, adding another layer of decorative charm. The photograph captures not only the beauty but also the essence of Victorian fashion. The carved jet brooch serves as both an elegant decoration and a symbol of status for women during that time period. It reflects their desire for ornamental accessories that were both fashionable and refined. This particular print belongs to the Fashion Museum Bath's collection and was generously gifted by Mrs Hull Grundy and Mr Giffard. With its timeless appeal and historical significance, it continues to captivate viewers even today. As we admire this mesmerizing image, let us appreciate the artistry behind each knot, each carving detail, which transforms simple materials into wearable works of art.
