An excellent example of a royal Victorian monogram, this beautiful piece features the monogram of the Princess Louise, Duchess of Argyle, sixth child and fourth daughter of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert.  An artist and sculptor in her own right, the "LL" is a classic two letter monogram with one “L” intertwined as the mirror image of the other.  One “L” facing another “L” produces a grace, beauty of line, and easy balance that letters of similar form turned toward one another gives. The oval faceted Rubies ,surrounded by pavé diamonds, complete the elegance of the piece.  Lynda found the monogram on an epaulet from Louise’s regiment.  Unusual for her time, Louise was a strong supporter of the arts and higher education for all.  A significant piece for a collector of historical based art and an inspiring conversation piece when worn.
