The Gold Plated Tara Brooch with Stones is rich with the tradition of Ireland. Brooches were originally used in the Dark Ages as a device to fasten one's cloak at the shoulder. As time went by, the level of ornamentation of the fastener came to reflect the owner's social status. Thus the more jewels and precious metals that were in the brooch, the higher up the social ladder the person was. The colorful stones and the antique silver finish make this Tara brooch look like it may have actually been worn by a king long ago. Measuring approximately 2 inches in diameter, the Gold Plated Tara Brooch with Stones was crafted in Ireland by Solvar Jewelry. The Tara Brooch with Stones makes an ideal gift for Mother's Day or any birthday.
