This Victorian silver brooch features an exquisite bird-in-a-circle design, both of which are loaded with sentimental symbolism. In the Victorian era, birds represented love, peace and fidelity, qualities that reflect a desire for eternal union and emotional security. Swallows, in particular, were popular as a symbol of return and safety, and were often used in farewell or remembrance jewellery. The circle, meanwhile, represents eternity and an unbreakable bond, and is a common motif on engagement rings or gifts of love. Circa 1900.
This is a piece of great emotional value and a beautiful representation of jewelry as a means of non-verbal communication at that time. A perfect gift!
