DATE: Victorian, c.1880 

A charming antique brooch, dating from the Victorian period, circa 1880. It's modelled as two horseshoes, each studded with the words "Good Luck" looping through. Horseshoes have long been associated with good luck, and has become popular symbol to provide protection. There are many superstitions on which way you should hang a horseshoe, however many choose to hang it facing down, believing that when you walk under it, all the positive vibes will “rain over” them. Crafted in sterling silver throughout.
