The swallow has long symbolized love, hope, and a safe return home, making it one of the most meaningful motifs in antique jewelry. This beautifully embossed antique locket is crafted in rich yellow gold, with the swallow, flowers, and leaves brought to life in contrasting rose and green gold, creating wonderful depth and color throughout the design. Weighing a substantial 18.1 grams and measuring 39 mm in diameter by 5 mm thick, it has a beautiful feel in the hand and wears just as well on a favorite chain. It’s in exceptional condition and still holds an old photograph inside, a wonderful reminder of the life and love it has carried through the years.
