Edwardian 9ct Gold Suffragette Brooch/ Pendant

443T
726 Admirers Rare Find
Written by Olly Gerrish

A very pretty 9ct gold Suffragette brooch that can also be worn as a pendant as it has a hook fitting on the back.  It is set with a large hexagonal cut  amethyst.  Around it is an open work gold wire design set with natural split pearls with small emeralds in between.

The colours of the stones and pearls, Green, White and Violet mean “Give Women Votes” using the first initial of each colour. This sent a message when worn to other women who were sympathetic to the Suffrage movement. It was made circa 1910
