The Sweetest Antique 9ct Gold Owl Bar Brooch with Red Gem Eyes

Really the very sweetest 9ct gold owl bar brooch. Stamped 9ct gold. In Victorian jewellery, owls symbolised wisdom, knowledge and intuition, often with wide knowing eyes. They also represented protection, mystery and transformation reflecting the era's interest in the natural world, science and the supernatural. The owl was associated with the Ancient Greek goddess Athena who was a deity of wisdom and strategy. Owls as silent nocturnal hunters were seen as guardians, offering protection against hidden dangers. Would make such a wonderful present!
