Image description

This is one of the brooches given to each of the twelve ladies - unmarried daughters of the nobility - who carried Queen Victoria's train at her wedding in 1840. The stones used were all highly symbolic: turquoises and pearls representing true love, rubies for passion and diamonds for eternity.
