Antique Double Picture Locket with Pearl-Set Swallow Detail

Holy moly, this is something seriously special. When I first saw it, I honestly thought it would cost hundreds – maybe even more – but somehow, I can bring it to you at a price that won’t make your eyes water. A picture locket in perfect working order, with the most intricate pearl-set swallow detailing, and all in beautiful condition. And get this – we still have the original photos inside, which appear to be a mother and daughter. How special is that? Of course, you can easily replace them with your own.

Swallows have long been a powerful symbol in Victorian jewellery, often given to loved ones embarking on a journey as a token of love and protection. The idea was that the swallow would bring them home safely. It's a piece with so much history, love, and meaning, and it’s all wrapped up in this stunning locket.
