French Perpignan garnet crescent moon brooch c.1820

DESCRIPTION

This is a crescent brooch from France dating back to the 1820s, crafted entirely in 18k rose gold and set with rhodolite garnets.

The name "rhodolite" originates from the Greek word "rhodon," meaning rose or rose-colored. Unlike the more common deep red garnets, rhodolite garnets exhibit a vivid red hue with a layer of purple undertones.

The natural phenomenon of the waxing and waning crescent moon holds symbolic significance of immortality, associated with feminine power and extending guardianship. 
This crescent-shaped brooch features rhodolite garnets arranged in various sizes, many with triangular facets and a prominent peak at the center, creating a three-dimensional effect reminiscent of rose-cut gemstones. This design aims to retain as much of the gemstone's weight as possible while showcasing the romantic and unique color of rhodolite garnets in a rosebud-like formation.
