Magical Faith, Hope And Love Charm Bracelet.
Modelled in 15 carat gold, the links of strap of the bracelet look almost like fish scales. It holds three gold buckles, from each hang a locket. An oval with an enamelled anchor, and oval with an enamelled cross; and to the centre a heart with enamelled ivy. All in royal blue.
The backs of the locket have glass compartments containing hair - which can be replaced for silk.
The anchor represents Hope
The Cross represents Faith
The heart represents Love (or charity)
The ivy on the heart is code for 'I cling to thee'
The buckles holding the pendant charms symbolise loyalty, fidelity, and the joining of two people, often representing romantic love or strong friendship. They were popular motifs on antique jewelry signifying a strong bond. Buckles were also used in mourning jewelry to represent enduring connections to lost loved ones.
