10K Yellow Gold Starburst Pin with Seed Pearls & Old Mine Cut Diamond

Antique 10K yellow gold starburst brooch with curved sun-ray arms set with pavé seed pearls and a sparkling old mine cut diamond center, shown against a soft gray background.

A little piece of the sun you can wear.
This luminous antique starburst pin glows with the radiance of a bygone era — its flowing rays of 10K yellow gold delicately pavé-set with seed pearls, and at its heart, a brilliant old mine cut diamond that catches the light like morning dew.

A Symbol of Light and Life

During the late Victorian and Edwardian eras, starburst and sunburst motifs were beloved symbols of vitality, hope, and divine light. They were often gifted to represent guidance, renewal, and everlasting love — and this piece captures that sentiment perfectly.

Each gold ray curves with lifelike motion, holding tiny seed pearls that shimmer softly against the warmth of the metal. In the center, a hand-cut diamond — approximately 0.20 carats — reflects the candlelight sparkle that only old mine cuts can offer.

It’s a breathtaking reminder that fine jewelry was once made to glow, not just to glitter.

Beauty and Versatility

Measuring 3 cm across and weighing approximately 5.1 grams, this piece has presence without heaviness. It was crafted with dual purpose: elegant as a brooch, but also easily convertible to a pendant by adding a discreet bail.

The craftsmanship and proportions make it equally at home pinned to an evening dress, a bridal sash, or a tailored jacket — an heirloom piece that moves effortlessly from generation to generation.
