The Bellevue - French Victorian Old Cut Diamond Sapphire 18k Gold Belt Buckle Brooch France

This late 19th-century Victorian belt buckle brooch is a striking example of period craftsmanship, fashioned in rich yellow gold with silver-topped accents and designed as a miniature buckle form. The woven gold texture creates depth and movement, while the asymmetrical buckle detail is highlighted with old-cut diamonds and sapphires set in silver, a classic technique of the era to enhance their brightness. Both sculptural and refined, the piece reflects the Victorian fascination with symbolic, functional motifs translated into fine jewelry. Signed “Déposé,” indicating a registered design and consistent with late 19th-century European workmanship, most commonly associated with French or French-market jewelry
