Victorian Ivy Leaf Collar
Gorgeous antique collar made up of overlapping plates, beautifully hand-engraved with ivy leaf motifs, reminiscent of fish scales. It's crafted in high carat gilt silver with a bright, radiant gold finish and fastens with an oversized gold bolt ring clasp. The sentimental Victorians LOVED ivy. To them it represented fidelity, high on the list of Victorian virtues, for when ivy chooses to embrace its companion - be that a tree, a wall, or a fencepost - nothing can separate the two, they become entwined to the last.

A healthy patina and the odd scuff or scrape is quite normal... it's part of their charm! Everything we present has been checked over by our jeweller and should be good for wear for many years to come (unless otherwise stated) but please remember to treat them with appropriate care and consideration for their age.
