Antique Suffragette Amethyst Brooch

This rare and lovely brooch from the 1900s represents the changes and challenges women faced in the early 20th century. The three colors displayed in this brooch signaled support for the suffragette movement while also being a beautiful piece of jewelry. Amethysts, demantoid garnets, and white diamonds are carefully set into this interesting and modern design.

The colors green, violet, and white were meant to represent the qualities that every suffragette should embody: nobility, purity, and hope.

Demantoid garnets were a relatively new gemstone available in the early 20th century, and it is exciting to find a piece that utilizes them in such a meaningful way. The amethysts display a rich purple color that draw attention to this historically significant piece of jewelry.
