Georgian 18ct Gold Rock Crystal Halley's Comet Brooch, c.1840

Sold

This rare Georgian 18ct Gold Rock Crystal Halley's Comet brooch will add intrigue to your collection! The comet is formed of two crisp white Rock Crystals, each one beautifully faceted and foiled to scintillate in the light. They are displayed within Silver piecrust settings and joined by intricately engraved 18ct Gold accents.

Halley's Comet, a scientific phenomenon that enchanted both the Georgians and Victorians alike, occurs every 75 years and has been recorded by astronomers around the world since 240 BC!  It wasn't until 1705 that the British astronomer Edmond Halley understood that these appearances were reappearances of the same comet returning into view every 75 years.

Circa 1840, this antique brooch is full of Georgian charm and is proof that when science and art collide, treasures like this are produced!
