This darling antique brooch captures something truly special. This is not just a beautiful piece of jewellery, but a heartfelt tribute to the bond between people and their beloved dogs. At its centre lies a miniature Essex crystal, lovingly revers carved and hand painted to depict a faithful little dog in exquisite detail. We believe he is a wire fox terrier who has been set against a mother of pearl backing giving them an ethereal glow. 

There has been some wear and water ingress over the lifetime, however this does nothing to take away from the charm and character it shows. Their little smile looking back through. 

The image is so lifelike, it feels as if the dog might leap out of the crystal. This is a testament to the extraordinary craftsmanship behind this rare technique. Set in a simple yet elegant 9ct gold mount, the brooch has a timeless warmth that speaks of both sentiment and style.

A little history:

Essex crystal jewellery became popular during the Victorian era, when pieces like this were often worn as tokens of affection and remembrance. Each crystal was carved from behind and then delicately painted, creating a three-dimensional look that brings the subject to life. These tiny works of art were often custom made to depict a beloved pet, making every piece unique and deeply personal.

This particular brooch is a beautiful example. It's full of character, emotion, and old world charm. Whether you're a collector of antique jewellery, a dog lover, or simply someone drawn to pieces with soul and story, this brooch is sure to speak to the heart.

A wearable love letter from the past.

a good choice
Color: Black, Size: Pack of 1, Color: Black, Size: Pack of 1
Assembled chair only to find that the lift cylinder was faulty. Would have preferred to be able to just get a replacement cylinder but calling China didn't seem like a viable option. Guessing which one & buying it online would involve paying for a good portion of what the chair cost. Customer service could only offer a replacement or refund. We're disassembling (so much fun?!) to send it back. The chair itself was very comfortable, assembled fairly easily and instructions pretty clear. Again, if we could only have asked the seller for the replacement part......**Update**...Or if the instructions that seemed so clear were clearer!, as we started to disassemble, we decided to see what would happen if the tension knob (see photo) was loosened. IT ALLOWED THE LIFT CYLINDER TO WORK. Not at all what the instructions say. At any rate, we're keeping the chair.

This chair is amazing
Color: Sky Blue, Size: Pack of 1, Color: Sky Blue, Size: Pack of 1
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely love this chair! It was super easy to assemble—I had it set up in no time with clear instructions and minimal effort. The comfort level is fantastic; the seat cushion is just right and the back support makes it great for longer sitting sessions. The color is beautiful in person—clean, modern, and adds a fresh pop to the room without being overwhelming. I also really like the smooth wheels and sturdy build; it feels stable and well-made. Overall, this is a great combination of style, comfort, and value. Highly recommend!

Great Chair! Worth the Price!
Color: Sky Blue, Size: Pack of 1
LOVE my new desk chair! I got the Sky Blue which is a really pretty blue in person. I work from home in tech, and had been getting constant headaches no matter what position I was in. I finally decided to invest in a better desk chair, and I'm SO glad I did! It's much more supportive and comfortable. I really like that I can flip the arms up or down, and the height is easy to adjust. Also, because I can flip the arms up, I can keep the chair out of the way when I'm not working by putting it right up against the desk. Very much worth the price! Assembly was simply and quick. Not even 30 minutes. Also, when I had a question about the chair, their support team was quick to respond and very helpful. Highly recommend!
