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.

Very Pretty and Nice Addition to my Living Room
Color: Square Tissue Box-retro
These look nice and were reasonably priced. Putting my tissue boxes in these holders also stopped my dog from tearing up boxes of tissues (he likes to tear up paper). he has not bothers these. They help the tissues blend into the decor without the distractions of the funky colors on the cardboard boxes.

Like it so much. I've got a second one
Color: Square Tissue Box-retro
Liked it so much. I've got a second one. This tissue box cover is so elegant and beautiful that I bought another one. The bottom snaps in place very nice and the threading around the box is beautifully done. The brown color goes very well with all of our oil rub bronze pictures in the house. It is very elegant and I just love it.

Classy tissue box cover with magnet closure... love them!
Color: Square Tissue Box-retro
These are gorgeous and match my decor. For some reason Kleenex boxes come in the most hideous, random prints and colors. I have these in every room, and they make the house look so much more classy and put-together.

Love this remote holder!
Color: Retro, Color: Retro
Very sturdy! Holds all my remotes…for bed, TV, light, fan, and flashlights. I am ALWAYS misplacing my remotes, so this item is a sanity saver. I put my remotes in a certain order: bed, TV, Light, fan and lastly two rechargeable flashlights. That way, even in the dark, I can find what I need. Yes, I’m older than dirt. This is a great looking, sturdy remote holder. You need it. And if you’re of a “certain age” and you misplace stuff you MUST have this remote holder!
