RARE Antique 1860's Hand Carved Victorian Agate Scottish Kilt Tartan Pin Brooch

Description: This is a rare antique Victorian 1860's Hand Carved Agate Scottish Kilt Tartan Brooch Pin. It is said that Queen Victorian gave her brooch to a soldier who was having difficulty keeping his kilt closed. It then became a way for people to also display their wealth. This is a beautiful brooch that measures approximately 1 3/8" in diameter. It has a C clasp on the back. The pin back looks to be a gold or brass tone, but the color has changed over the years so it is hard to tell. There is a silver tone wire that goes through the center of the agate circle and holds the bar shaped piece of agate into place. I do not see any chips or cracks in the stone. This is a stunning collectible tartan brooch from the 19th century!! I sell on Ebay because I enjoy going to auctions, estate sales, and finding unique items. Most things are from my own collection. I'm not an expert by any means. I will try to give you accurate information and take good pictures of the items. Also, because a lot of my items are from estate sales I won't always know if they are from a "smoking" or "non-smoking" home, or whether they have pets or not. I do not always get to clean the jewelry, although I try. If any item has a flaw I will do my best to point it out in the description and pictures. If I miss something or if you have any questions please let me know. Any props I use in pictures or coins for sizing are not included in the sale. Also, I use a 15" necklace display, so that gives you an idea about size. I started to collect jewelry because I love it, love looking for unique pieces, it's fun to wear, doesn't have to cost a lot and it doesn't take up a lot of room! There is always something different to find! I will combine shipping. If you buy more than one item I will send you a new invoice, or refund you the difference if you have already paid. Thank you! Because shipping can be costly, I decided to charge a flat rate of $4.00 for my jewelry items, unless it is stated otherwise. For 2 items I just charge the one $4.00 shipping charge and for 3 or more jewelry items is free shipping. If you buy an item and want to wait to have it shipped so you can combine shipping, or possibly get free shipping, just let me know that you are still shopping and want me to wait to ship. Thank you! *************If you buy 3 jewelry items at the same time I will waive the shipping.*************
