A delicate bird in mid-flight, captured forever in gold—a symbol of love, freedom, and quiet devotion. This Edwardian heart locket is adorned with a graceful bird, its body set with luminous pearls, each one like a tiny promise held close. In its beak, the bird carries two garnet berries, rich with meaning and deep, wine-red warmth. Framed by a border of scrolling detail, this piece is a treasure of both sentiment and style—a whisper from an era of romance and craftsmanship.

Crafted around 1900, this locket is hallmarked 9 CT and bears the mark Back & Front. Measuring 33.3 mm long, 20.5 mm across, and 6 mm thick, it features eight 1.2 mm pearls delicately inset into the bird’s body and two 1.5 mm garnets as berries along the stem clasped in its beak. Inside, the heart-shaped interior offers space for two cherished photographs or mementos, waiting to hold a secret close to the wearer’s heart.

A perfect emblem of love’s gentle persistence, this locket is not just worn, it’s carried like a memory, ready to be filled with a new story of its own.
