tomfordvelvetorchid:Victorian Lover’s Eye Jewels #they Might Be Georgian actually… vince can u confirm (via @gothicmarquise)Yup, can confirm. Definitely Georgian and not Victorian. Eye miniatures were most fashionable between about 1790 and 1820, and the Victorian era didn’t start until 1837.The top picture is from the V&A, and the lower one is from the Philadelphia Museum of Art, and both are dated c. 1800. -- source link
