Antique, Victorian Silver black dot paste flying swallow, brooch
Circa 1860

Beautiful Silver flying swallow featuring six, black-dot paste stones mounted on the body, tail feathers and wings. Embellished with a tiny glass ruby eye.

The swallow mates for life and is a symbol of enduring love and loyalty. It also represents a safe return home. Sea voyages during the Victorian period were long and dangerous.
