Large 14k Gold Victorian Lavalier Pearl Pendant with Bird

This magnificent Victorian lavalier is fairly large in size. It is a piece that should be worn on its own merit. The beautiful swallow is placed in the center and dipping down. This handmade design makes this piece feel light and delicate for how large it is.

The Victorian Era dates from 1837 to 1901. The Victorian Era transitioned towards "romanticism and mysticism with regard to religion, social values, and arts." You see this in every facet of what was made during this time, like this pendant.
