Sailing across the water, two silver paste studded swans, together and joined by a silver bar that unscrews. The swan symbolizes grace and beauty on many levels. It is associated with love, music and poetry. In Roman mythology the swan was sacred to Venus, the goddess of love. In Greek tradition, this bird was often pictured singing to a lyre. This pin was made circa 1910.
