Victorian Diamond Salamander Brooch

A perfect Victorian diamond salamander brooch. The salamander head is set with an old mine cut, cushion-shaped diamond and all the rest of the diamonds are rose cuts.

Salamanders have been used in jewellery to symbolise passionate love, immortality, rebirth and luck. In classical antiquity, Salamanders were thought to be able to survive fire so Victorians adopted them to represent romantic courtship.

ABOUT THE ERA

Victorian Era Jewellery

Jewellery in the Victorian era (1837–1901), named after Queen Victoria of the United Kingdom, is notable for its diversity and reflection of the period's social, cultural, and technological changes.

This era can be divided into three distinct periods: the Early Victorian or Romantic period, the Mid-Victorian or Grand period, and the Late Victorian or Aesthetic period. Each phase had its own unique characteristics and influences on jewellery design.
