Antique Victorian Tulip Brooch, ca 1900
Our Notes
Turn-of-the-century naturalism favored lightness and graphic clarity over Victorian weight. This Belle Époque brooch captures that evolution: a single tulip built with a subtle gradient of pavé-set rubies and diamonds, paired with an antique diamond stem and emerald-set leaves mounted in period-typical platinum-topped gold.
The piece retains its original gilt-stamped leather case from Wartski, London—the court jewelers established in 1882 and renowned for their Fabergé work. The fitted box provides distinct archival context, marking it as a exceptionally preserved survival of Edwardian-era retail history.
England, ca 1900

As our jewelry is worn, patinas will evolve, further personalizing them to each collector. Due to the nature of foiled jewelry, care should be taken in order to keep Larkspur & Hawk jewelry from becoming harmed. A few tips:
- Remove jewelry when applying lotions, soaps and perfume
- Remove jewelry before immersing hands in cleaning solvents or liquids
- Please note that oxidation may eventually wear off of rings, then return naturally
