"I love you to the moon and back" Early 20th Century Turquoise and split pearl crescent and stars brooch
Meaning: In Victorian jewellery, the crescent moon and star motif represented felinity, guidance, new beginnings and enduring love. The crescent moon symbolised the feminine moon goddess, female empowerment and the changing cycles of life, while stars represented spiritual guidance and a celestial map. Worn together, they often expressed a message of "I love you to the moon and back". What a wonderfully romantic gift this would make for someone special!
