A unique and beautiful necklace.
The Aesthetic Movement in Britain (1860 – 1900) aimed to escape the ugliness and materialism of the Industrial Age. The philosophy championed "art for arts sake" therefore believing art and literature only needed to be beautiful and did not necessarily need to carry a deeper meaning.
Symbolism was very important in Victorian jewellery and Ivy leaves were a popular motif as they represent everlasting life, devotion, fidelity and loyalty.
The pendant is 3cm x 3cm and the sterling silver box chain is 45cm in length. The pendant is not hallmarked, which was common in artisan made pieces such as this, but it has been tested for silver.
All Vonk Jewellery is presented in a gift pouch with luxe ribbon. If you would like a gift message included please message me at checkout.
