Coiled up in the snowy moss are two golden Victorian era serpents. They adorn a pair of very wearable earrings in 14 carat gold, with green paste gems and Etruscan style ropework details. Each serpent forms an airy little knot almost in the shape of an 8, a symbol of eternity which makes perfect sense as snakes symbolised eternal love to the Victorians. Lightweight and comfortable to wear, they once most likely had back-to-front findings now with newer latch-back (or russian) closures, making them sit very safely on the earlobe.
I love how they turn their heads towards each other, creating a beautiful frame for your face as you wear them.

My antique Victorian love token necklace and bracelet. It took nearly 3-1/2 decades for me to collect all the coins with engraved family names and birth dates! They date from between 1854 to 1892.

One of the finest examples of Victorian hair jewelry I’ve had in the shop. The main body of the cross is entirely wrapped in skillfully woven human hair- a sentimental keepsake.

The language of flowers....
Elaborately enameled silver collar with detachable locket and original box. The language of Floriography was a romantic, subtle method of communication in the Victorian era; speaking your feelings wasn't always appropriate, but feelings needed be communicated.
