Victorian Turquoise & Pearl Love Knot Bracelet

$2,400

It's a "love knot". If you couldn't tell by the heart-shaped loop, you could get a hint from the turquoise. The blue stone was a traditional gift of friendship during the 19th century. Queen Victoria gave turquoise jewels to her bridesmaids to show her deep affection.
