A popular design used in the Victorian era, swallows were believed to represent love and were also given as a symbol of returning safely to your loved ones. People in England often quote seeing swallows for the first time each year as a sign of the start of Spring. The swallow mates for life, making this pendant/charm a beautiful gift for a special someone to symbolise your commitment to each other. We think it would make an incredibly sentimental gift for a bride to be!
The charm is made from 9ct gold, partially marked to the hidden bail at the back. The swallow has sweet detailing to the front and is a cute petite size.
The charm measures approx 11mm beak to tail by approx 9.1mm wide by approx 5.4mm deep including the hidden bail to the back. The charm weighs approx 0.5g.
Condition - The charm is in good vintage condition with some signs of age and wear, including surface wear to the gold. Please see photos for more detail.
