Victorian 9ct Gold Ruby Heart Tie Pin feed-condition-used Comfortable and stylishA sweet and sentimental Victorian tie pin in the form of a softly rounded heart, set in 9ct gold and star set with a pinkish red ruby at its centre. The heart motif was a favourite in late 19th century jewellery, often exchanged as tokens of affection or remembrance. The ruby, Julys birthstone, symbolised love, vitality, and protection, while the star setting was thought to guide and guard the wearer, giving this little jewel both charm and meaning.
