Another Victorian trend was jewelry with a snake motif. It symbolized eternal love; Prince Albert famously presented a snake ring to Queen Victoria, which spawned many forms of the animal in the decorative arts.
This grand serpentine brooch is also coiled into a love knot, another favorite romantic design of the Victorian Era. Studded with bright blue Persian Turquoise stones, it is sure to be an eye catcher every time you wear it!
