      • Star BroochesStar Brooches. The stars were observed by ancient peoples thousands of years ago. They were used for navigation, time-keeping and agriculture for centuries as well as mythology and astrology, it is therefore not surprising that stars were a popular form for jewelry, including brooches. Star brooches have been in use since Roman times and possibly before, however,  it was in the Medieval age where they first began to become popular items of adornment among the wealthy.
