The Victorian era was a deeply symbolic period in jewellery, when the meaning behind a jewel could be as important as its beauty. Motifs drawn from love, remembrance and devotion were particularly cherished, allowing personal sentiments to be expressed through precious objects. The heart was among the most evocative of these symbols, universally understood as an emblem of affection. With its exquisite heart-shaped design, this piece may well have been a treasured love token.
