Victorian Christmas Tree Brooch

Enamelled and crystal-set brooch celebrating the Victorian era’s popularisation of the Christmas tree tradition, largely attributed to Queen Victoria and Prince Albert. Their family’s festive gatherings around decorated trees were famously depicted in the 1848 ‘Illustrated London News’, embedding the custom into British culture. The brooch’s elegant design recalls the period’s fascination with symbolism and ornamental detail, making it a charming nod to the origins of modern Christmas celebrations.
