2nd and 3rd payment Rare, Antique, 15ct Gold Forget-me-not Turquoise Engraved, Heart Padlock Pendant/Clasp

Set in 15ct gold, this rare and substantial antique padlock pendant is in full working order and snaps shut nicely and firmly. It is beautifully and ornately engraved on the front and reverse, and features seven natural turquoise stones arranged in a forget-me-not flower motif in the centre. On its reverse, a beautiful deep green bloodstone (symbolising life, vitality, strength, and courage) sits at the hearts's centre.

This is a great sized padlock, measuring 3cm x 2cm and weighing 4.97g. It remains in splendid condition with the gems still firmly set.

Antique and vintage jewellery is heavy in symbolism and such padlocks were usually given and worn as love tokens.

This beautiful padlock's versitility means you can either slip it onto a split ring or charm bracelet, or thread a fine chain through its central bale, to wear it as a pendant.

Please have a look at the pictures and video, and dont hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions.
