Exquisite Victorian antique daguerreotype brooch depicting a well dressed young mounted in gold tone metal. With a pin and double 'C' catch fitting circa 1840.
The quality of the gentleman picture is much better than in the photographs.

Measurements:
Weight 31.50 grams
Length approximately 7 centimetres

A bit of history:
“A daguerreotype is an early type of photograph that was first discovered and patented in France in 1839 by Louis-Jacques-Mandé Daguerre. The process for producing a daguerreotype began with a direct-positive image produced on a copper plate prepared with a layer of photo-sensitive silver halide. Iodine vapor exposure made the mirror-like surface light-sensitive. Placing the plate in a camera and exposing it to a lighted scene formed a latent image. The image was developed by exposing it to heated mercury. Condensation of the mercury on the highlights of the image resulted in an amalgam. Use of a developing box allowed the photographer to stop development when the image was satisfactory. A fixer was used to dissolve any unexposed halides and create the final, fragile image.

Daguerreotypes had to be covered in glass to prevent damage to the image including actually rubbing the image off. A brass mat was often placed over the picture to create a space between the image and the glass. A good seal was also necessary to protect the image from oxidation. These enclosures were sometimes vacuum-sealed and the air replaced with nitrogen. A brass binding, known as a preserver, was often used to hold the brass mat, daguerreotype and glass cover altogether. These were in general use in the 1850s.”

Please note:
Many of my items are vintage and are therefore likely to show some age-related wear. This can include things such as: scratches, discolouration, repairs etc. Please be sure to look through each photograph carefully and read the description fully, to get an idea of condition.

La collana è nuova e molto bella, l' unico handicap le spese doganali, ma mi regolerò per la prossima volta : della Gran Bretagna sono sempre stata allergica.
