Oh it glows from within! Such a magical jewel, set with three round cabochon moonstones, each with equally spell-bindingly strong blue schiller (the optical effect that makes moonstone glow and shimmer like it does), and set the the centre with a little blue sapphire. Just beautiful. All neatly bundled up in a millegraine edged 15ct gold setting.
And let’s not forget the subject! A shamrock, or clover, a good luck symbol; the Victorians loved all sorts of talismans, and they believed moonstone to be a protective stone, and that it brought good fortune, which makes perfect sense in the form of a shamrock.
