The crescent and star motif became popular during the later Victorian period starting around 1880 and continued through the Edwardian era to the 1920s.

The emergence was in part due to the great number of astronomical events including the appearance of Halley’s Comet in 1910. Travel to such exotic climes such as the Middle East and the lands of the Ottoman Empire gave rise to the exposure of the crescent moon as an integrated symbol as well.

A phenom pendants with a crescent moon and star theme is rendered in silver-topped 14k yellow gold. Diamonds are the ideal for representing the twinkling of objects in the night sky.

There are 15 old mine cut diamonds in all, for a total of .59 carats (H-I color, SI1-3 clarity). Each graduate down from the center to the points.

This one is the Goldilocks size, not too large and not too small. If you don't want this one to sit is a drawer waiting for that once a year event, this is it!
