A Tiffany & Co. designed, manufactured, and retailed brooch of two moonstone babies’ faces dressed in gold and enamel bonnets; one crying, one cooing. Dating from the late 19th Century. Carved moonstone jewels like these may have been supplied by an in-house lapidary since there are several extant examples as well as a plethora of jewelry sketches (wearing enormous diamond bonnets, or outfitted in pink or blue) indicating a readily available supply. Sported by both men and women to announce the arrival of a new family member. #babiesofinstagram #babygifts #christeninggift #giftsoflove #moonstone #lapidary #babyannouncement #tiffanyandco #vintagetiffanybrooch #vintagetiffany #19thcenturyjewelry #tiffanyarchives #19thcenturytiffany #babyface #cryingbaby #antiquetiffany #Repost @archivistsdelight with @make_repost https://www.instagram.com/p/CTuHbKHI7vF/?utm_medium=tumblr
