Georgian Era Gemstone Love Token Pendant

Georgian Era Gemstone Love Token Pendant

England, circa 1810

Crafted in England around 1810, this pendant is a miniature masterpiece, a love token rendered in gemstones. Each suspended charm carries meaning: diamonds for constancy, sapphires for fidelity, amethysts for devotion, garnets and topazes for affection, and pearls for purity. A diamond-set padlock and key add a tender layer of symbolism, promising love kept safe, its secrets guarded. Within the lock, a tiny locket compartment once held a curl of hair. 

Strung on delicate 18k gold chains, the stones and charms sway gently with the wearer's movement. The arrangement reflects the Georgian fascination with coded romance—jewelry as a private language between lovers, its message understood only by those who shared it.

Delicate yet vivid, this pendant captures the grace of its era while feeling surprisingly modern. 

The pendant measures 1.75 inches in length. We have Antique chains available and are happy to make a pairing for you. Please call or email the shop to inquire.
