The history of ornaments labeled “MIRACLE”, or Sol D’Or (sun of gold) began in 1946. Created by the company Hill & Co, Miracle Jewelry LTD began producing costume jewelry in Birmingham – the heart of the jewelry industry in England.
For more than 70 years, they have made excellent jewelry in the traditions of the Celts, Ireland, Scotland, Vikings, Anglo-Saxons, English Baroque, Middle Ages and other styles. Due to the meticulousness of the designers working on Miracle – all ornaments have a historical basis.
Noteworthy, “Miracle” craftsmen often used natural stones or imitation of their special invention. In particular, transparent glass and smalt of a unique composition and different colors.
Until now, the company produced limited collections jewelry, which quality is still on top. Sold mainly in the UK and Ireland, Miracle has its own unique style with meaning.
Worn by both women and men, the brooch combined a decorative and utilitarian function. It was a functional detail, and also contained a magical subtext, acting as an amulet. According to belief, such amulet protects from all sorts of evil spirits.
