DATE: Victorian, 1894

A gorgeous Victorian anchor brooch in sterling silver. It's beautifully worked, with intricate hand-chased detailing and applied rose gold floral details. The anchor traditionally represents Hope, and this one features a silver chain around it, as well as a crescent shaped motif, or possibly a stylized horse-shoe for good luck.
