A gorgeous pairing.
A Victorian set comprising of a good sized weighty heart pendant, studded with three foil back pastes in the shape of an ivy leaf, symboising ever lasting love and fidelity. The piece almost certainly started life as a locket and we can see, under magnification, where it once would have opened and closed. The convesion has been well done but there are traces of it's previous life. The same can be said for all of us, I'm sure..
The chain is a hollow belcher finished with a chunky barrel clasp which the oversized jump ring slides over with ease.
A sweet set, perfect for every day wear.

All of my pieces are at the very least pre-owned and most of them are vintage or antique. This item is not brand new and as such, will not look brand new. Please expect signs of wear to include kinks in links, surface wear to gold, scuffs to stones and accept this as part and parcel of buying second hand jewellery. I will be as clear as I can with item descriptions and condition statements and aim to make sure you are aware of any potential defects before you buy. Please study the photos carefully as they form part of the condition statement.
