Victorian Bird Swallow Locket Pendant Necklace Pearl 14 Karat Gold
About the Item
This is a gorgeous antique Victorian bird swallow locket pendant in 14 Karat Gold adorned with pearls in an extraordinary three-dimensional design. The locket is one of the most beautiful antique animal motif lockets we have seen. The locket is a wonderful size. It is antique and dates to the Belle Epoque, Victorian period. The locket has a magnificently modeled three dimensional flying bird. The reverse has lovely clean lines. The locket opens to reveal places for two photos. It has the original inserts and both covers for the photos. The romantic swallow bird locket dances delightfully around the neck and creates a conversation piece to be passed on for generations. Animal and bird inspired jewels as well as lockets are all the rage today and finding one of this quality is just a dream. The locket dates to circa 1860 - 1910.
Swallows are birds known to mate for life, and they always return to their nests after time away. They were therefore used in many cases to signify love and constancy across both distance and time. Jewelry featuring swallows was often given to young couples or exchanged between them on their wedding day, and was worn by both men and women.
The locket is 1.5 inches (40mm) tall including the bales.
The locket itself is 1 1/4 inches (30mm) tall without the bales and 1 inch (24mm) wide.
The locket is 14 Karat Gold.
The locket weighs 9 grams.
The listing is only for the locket pendant. The chain is only shown for display.
