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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eThis pendant is photographed with our \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.glenandeffie.com\/products\/sterling-silver-small-charm-chain\"\u003eSmall Sterling Silver Charm Chain\u003c\/a\u003e but pairs nicely with any necklace in our \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.glenandeffie.com\/collections\/signature-necklaces\"\u003eClassics Collection\u003c\/a\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cem style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eor with a chain of your own on one of our \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.glenandeffie.com\/products\/sterling-silver-swivel-clasp\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eSwivel Clasps\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e. \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Glen \u0026 Effie","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48222630740213,"sku":null,"price":245.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0294\/1970\/0298\/files\/June_2026-34.jpg?v=1780939319","url":"https:\/\/www.glenandeffie.com\/products\/sterling-silver-old-cut-bird-charms","provider":"Glen \u0026 Effie","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
