The Story

This sentimental antique locket comes to us from Chester, England circa 1911. Rendered in vibrant 9 karat yellow gold, this sweet locket features a pair of swallows lovingly engraved amidst flowers. Swallows have long held romantic symbolism, representing faithfulness and homecoming. A piece with a swallow was often given to a loved one who set out on a journey. The two swallows on this locket face away from each other on the back of the locket and are happily reunited on the front, reflecting this homecoming journey. The locket can hold two oval shaped photos - one for you, and one for your swallow!
