Scottish 19th Century 15ct Gold Dirk Brooch set with Bloodstone, Jasper & Citrine

№ 8U
Written by Olly Gerrish

A neat 15ct gold dirk that was made circa 1860-1880 for the Scottish burgeoning tourist trade. This was because Queen Victoria had purchased Balmoral castle in the 1860s. Many pieces were made as tourist trinkets to sell to the travellers who flocked to the Cairngorms to discover the beauty and serenity of the Scottish mountains. Today they are still sought after because of the craftsmanship and the use of the pebbles found in the river beds and polished to form these lovely pieces of jewellery. This dirk brooch has been set with bloodstone and jasper with a carved thistle shaped citrine on the top.
