Queen Victoria's Bow Brooch

Queen Victoria's Bow Brooch

Item Ref: CR2903
Our price: £60.00

Bow brooches have been a popular design since the 1800’s, and in May 1858 Garrard (the Crown Jewellers) made a set of three bow brooches, two large and one small, out of 506 diamonds supplied by Queen Victoria.  There is no pictorial reference to prove that Queen Victoria wore them, however they were worn by both Queen Alexandra and Queen Mary at their Coronations.  Queen Mary, in 1912 wore the brooch with the pear shaped Cullinan III suspended from the bottom of it.  The brooch is now in the possession of Queen Elizabeth II, who wears it frequently.
