Antique Sterling Silver Spider Brooch | Late Victorian | Naturalistic Detail

Why we chose it: This is the kind of piece that draws you in the longer you look at it. The spider — a symbol of patience, creativity, and sometimes unease — is rendered here with such realism and care that it almost feels alive. Made in the late Victorian era, when fascination with the natural world was reflected in jewellery design, this brooch captures that spirit beautifully. Though unmarked, the craftsmanship speaks for itself. A perfect piece for collectors drawn to the unusual, the gothic, or the exquisitely detailed.
