A stirring tribute to courage and faith, this antique French Art Nouveau silver brooch features the noble profile of Joan of Arc, framed by flowing organic forms that echo the movement and idealism of the era. Softly sculpted and rich with patina, it feels both intimate and powerful—an emblem meant to be worn close to the heart.
 
In jewellery, Joan of Arc symbolizes bravery, devotion, and unwavering conviction. Revered in France as a national heroine and saint, her image was cherished during the Art Nouveau period as a symbol of moral strength, sacrifice, and the triumph of spirit over adversity. This brooch is more than adornment; it is a quiet declaration of inner resolve and timeless femininity—a poetic relic of history, belief, and beauty entwined.
C-clasp. 
 
The “Bse” before “Jeanne d’Arc” (Joan of Arc) stands for “Bienheureuse” (Blessed).
 
Sourced in France and curated by Paris-based Vivienne Birt for Chateau Love, this brooch embodies the timeless sophistication and meticulous artistry that defines our carefully selected chateau-worthy collection of luxurious antique and vintage jewelry.
