It is predominantly silver with a gold wash on the reverse. It was made circa 1860-1880. It is known as a Saint Esprit or Dove of Peace. The \u201cSaint Esprit\u201d is historically a Christian symbol (meaning \u201cHoly Spirit\u201d in French) that is represented in the form of a dove. Worn by Protestants and Catholics alike, the Saint Esprit dove worn as a jewel can be traced back to pieces dating as early as the mid 1700s. It became very popular in France during the 18th century, and was often worn by peasant women in cross designs that incorporated either real gemstones or French paste. The dove itself is highly symbolic in many cultures and faiths, widely recognised as a representation of peace, love, and fidelity. In this piece the dove has been set with graduated old mine cut diamonds and a few graduated rose diamonds set in to it\u2019s head. He has tiny cabochon ruby eyes and a gold beak. He is holding a pearl in his beak. A rare and beautiful piece of jewellery.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is a wonderful piece of jewellery.
