It was constructed from natural agates and granites found along roads, streambeds, and shorelines. Pieces are typically adorned with Scottish symbols and themes, such as thistles, stags, and Celtic crosses. When Queen Victoria purchased Balmoral Castle in Scotland, along with the popularity of Sir Walter Scott's novels, interest in all things Scottish exploded. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eTo learn more about the jewelry of the late-Victorian era, read our blog post \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/thegemmary.com\/blogs\/news\/jewelry-of-the-victorian-aesthetic-period\" title=\"Late Victorian blog post\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ehere\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe brooch is in good antique condition with some noticeable signs of wear.
