Stars were not an uncommon symbol to be used in jewelry during the Victorian era, representing hope and light, but this pin has rendered the symbol in a unique way. The 8-point star is elongated and wide, almost resembling a cloud. The result is a very modern silhouette for an antique piece.

The pin was crafted with 10-karat solid gold, which was then lined with a dense row of natural seed pearls. The ample use of pearls gives it an creamy, golden look, with plenty of shimmer and shine. When worn, you’ll notice its full profile and light weight.
