Antique Jewelry Portland, Vintage Jewelry Portland , Antique Engagement Rings | Poor Mouchette | A scarce Victorian era brooch, modeled in 18k yellow gold and silver, that takes the form of two witches' hearts. These bewitched hearts overlap in a way that suggests they are bound together— one is set with natural, old cut rubies, while the other is set with glinty rose cut diamonds. A natural pearl rests at the cleave of each heart. This brooch has a long pin stem, and it fastens with a curly c-catch.
