Victorian Scottish Arrow Brooch.
A striking example of 19th-century Scottish jewellery, this antique arrow-shaped brooch showcases exquisite craftsmanship and attention to detail. The arrowhead and fletching are finely engraved in sterling silver, while the shaft features polished natural octagonal banded carnelian, agate, highlighting its unique patterns and warm, earthy tones.
Fitted with a hinge and secure C-clasp, this arrow pin brooch, lapel pin reflects authentic Victorian construction.

Arrow motifs were especially popular in late 19th- and early 20th-century jewellery, often symbolizing love (Cupid's arrow), protection, or a passion for archery-a fashionable sport with social significance during the Victorian and Edwardian eras.
A charming and decorative example of archery-themed jewellery, perfect for collectors or lovers of historic Scottish design.
