Edwardian 15ct Gold Swallow & Harvest Moon Pendant on 9ct Gold Chain

173M
451 Admirers
Written by Olly Gerrish

A very pretty 15ct pendant of a swallow within a crescent moon.  The swallow was considered daring, risk-seeking, and a symbol of change for good in the future. It also meant “Everlasting love” and “loyalty” as swallows mate for life. The crescent moon signified the start of a relationship which, it was hoped, would “wax” into a marriage. The swallow holds a pearl sprig set with a pearl for “Eternal love”. It is on a 9ct gold chain with a barrel clasp.  Both the pendant and chain were made circa 1900-1910.  So what a perfect gift for someone you love.
