This delicately formed sterling brooch is painstakingly detailed in its naturalistic representation of the seahorse. Measuring 2" tall, the repeat s-curve design is powerful. Signed "Beau Sterling" on reverse plaque. This is a difficult-to-find Beau brooch.
The seahorse is symbolic for the Deep, and in ancient times was an emblem for the sea god Poseidon. The seahorse had mystical meaning among other ancient cultures, and in Europe was said to carry the souls of dead sailors to rest.
Attributes of the seahorse are power and persistence, for their tenacity in holding on with their tails peacefulness and patience, for their calm movements and awareness, for their keen eyesight.
