Continue a story of romance with this exquisite antique Victorian garnet pearl heart locket, crafted in silver and 15ct gold. The front features a luxurious tiered arrangement of rose-cut garnets, culminating in a central cabochon heart garnet on top, framed by a halo of luminous white pearls. The back conceals a round locket with a small glass window, ideal for a cherished photograph of your beloved.
Garnet has been desired throughout history for its strength and blazing crimson-red or cherry-pink flame that glows beneath its dark exterior. It’s considered a stone of the heart and symbolic of passion, commitment, and enduring love. It contrasts beautifully with the bright, white lustre of pearls that also represent love and fidelity.
Dating to the late 19th century, this sweet Victorian garnet heart locket remains in excellent condition, a timeless gift and enduring symbol of love that has truly stood the test of time.
