This antique Scottish agate bar brooch dates to the late Victorian era (circa 1870–1890). The rectangular banded agate cabochon displays rich tones of russet, caramel, cream, and amber, beautifully polished to a high gloss. It's set in a brass bezel with a dotted border design, showing the deep warm patina that comes with age. The back features an early tube hinge and C-clasp—typical of the period—with no hallmarks. A lovely small-scale example of 19th-century Scottish jewelry, perfect for collectors or for adding a subtle historical touch to a lapel, scarf, or jacket.
