Up for sale is a beautiful, authentic piece of fine estate history. This stunning transitional piece perfectly bridges the late Victorian and early Edwardian eras (circa 1880–1910).

• The Symbolism: The interlocking "Love Knot" represents an unbreakable bond, eternal affection, and unity. It was given as a sentimental token of love during the late 19th century.
• The Craftsmanship: Masterfully constructed from smooth, hollow gold tubes. This period-accurate technique allowed artisans to create striking, three-dimensional volume without weighing down delicate clothing fabrics like silk cravats or lapels.
• The Accents: Features two clean, luminous white accent pearls tucked elegantly into the lower curve of the knot.
