Maybe it’s the color of these fantastic Scottish pieces that seems to well coordinated with Autumn, or maybe it’s the idea of wrapping myself in wool in bright plaid patterns for warmth and to add a touch of color to the landscape.

They are in very good condition without any dings, dents or chips, one of the brighter red stones has a hairline crack, but it’s quite stable. This larger scale brooch measures 56.5 mm north to south and across and is 13 mm deep. The stones are set in sterling silver, which is unmarked but has been acid tested. The reverse of the brooch has a jump ring which probably originally held a safety chain, it could be used to wear this piece as a lovely pendant. It weighs 31.7 grams.

One side glows with deep green bloodstone, the other with warm, burnished carnelian; two ancient stones favored for their power and polish. The gold frame is crowned by a sculptural knot, a looping flourish that feels like a secret symbol: eternal connection, perhaps, or the Victorian ideal of unbroken love. When worn on a chain it swings with quiet elegance, unfolding its history at your heart.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMade in England around 1890, this substantial spinner fob is rendered in 10 karat gold and marked “10 CT.” The oval bloodstone measures 20.45 x 17 mm and displays classic red flecks in a deep forest green ground; the reverse is a richly colored carnelian at 20.3 x 16.4 mm. The overall dimensions are 39.3 mm tall including bale, 25.5 mm across, and 11 mm deep. It weighs 12 grams. The swivel action is smooth and the setting secure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhether worn alone with a watch chain or antique necklace, this piece adds movement, color and a whisper of old-world charm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI offer free layaway on most items purchased for full retail price, please inquire if you are interested in setting up a layaway.

In heraldry, the image of an Ostrich is used as a symbol of faith and contemplation. For centuries the Ostrich was always depicted with a metal object in its mouth, usually a horseshoe or a key. It was thought that Ostriches could eat these metal objects. The family Chamberlin features an ostrich like this one with a key in its beak standing atop a coronet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis handcrafted 18 karat gold ring features a large oval of deep green bloodstone flecked with bright red. The stone is carved with a fantastic image of an ostrich holding a key and is set into a subtly gorgeous ring with a rosy gold hue. This large intaglio measures 19 mm north to south and 12.3 mm across, the overall face of the ring is 20.8 x 11.6 mm and sits 4.7 mm of the finger. This ring is a size 8.25 and is unmarked, so we’ve carefully acid tested it to verify the content. This circa 1870-80 ring weighs 9.8 grams.
