Victorian grouse foot kilt pin brooch
The Victorian age brought about many changes including rapid industrialization. In reaction to this development, there was also an almost obsessive fascination with natural things, in part brought about by Darwin's theory of evolution. The fashion was to adorn oneself with natural things including animals and insects in an attempt to reconnect with nature.
The grouse's foot, set with circular-cut paste ring; and an engraved silver and oval-cut paste cuff; 1880s
Silver
3 x 1 in; Gross weight 4.1 dwts
This work will ship from Lambertville, New Jersey. Local pickup in Chicago will also be available.
