A very romantic Victorian double heart motif, joined by a ribbon bow. This would have been a gift between lovers or very close friends. It has been converted to a pendant from an antique brooch.
 
In very good condition with two beautiful amethyst gemstone hearts, they show minor surface wear appropriate to the age of the piece. There is some evidence of glue to the reverse, but it has been checked and is all secure.
