'Hope'
This beautiful antique 'fine' jewellery piece has been created using an antique (Victorian) 15ct gold Anchor (formerly a brooch), entwined with stunning and intricate twisted rope detailing, and set with
pretty seed pearls.
I have coupled this piece with a 9ct gold antique rolo link pendant/locket chain. The chain fastens to the back of the neck by way of a barrel fastener.
Anchor Trivia: The 'fouled anchor' is a classic Victorian love symbol with the anchor meaning hope , security and steadfastness and the fouling wire meaning entwined forever. (Foul being a nautical term meaning to entangle or entwine).
A classically cool forever heirloom piece. Perfect worn alone or layering with any of my longer necklaces.
Approximate Measurements:
Overall length: 19 inches
Anchor: 3.5cm x 2.2cm
This is a quirky one-of-a-kind heirloom piece, bringing the wearer an item of jewellery as exclusive and individual as them. The perfect keepsake or gift to celebrate life's milestone occasions or just life!
