THE HISTORY:

Birds were a popular and common motif in jewelry in Victorian and early 1800s jewelry. Swallows and doves in particular adorned all kinds of pieces. Swallows mate for life and always go back to their nest, so it made sense for them to be on jewelry that lovers would give to each other. The birds were a popular symbol for sailors as well: spotting a them in the sky was the first sign their ship was close to land where they would return to their loved ones.
