Step back into the enchanting world of the late Victorian era with this magnificent 15k yellow gold and platinum diamond horseshoe necklace.  Crafted circa 1880, this piece epitomizes the Victorian fascination with symbolism and sentiment.  The Victorians, with their stiff upper lips and strict social codes, found subtle ways to convey their deepest emotions through the language of jewelry. Amidst this secretive romance, a glittering horseshoe made of platinum and Old European cut diamonds speaks volumes.

With 5.0 carats of old mine cut diamonds, this horseshoe charm gathers all the good fortune, and a dash of Victorian magic, a sparkling reminder that a little luck and a lot of diamonds never go out of style.
