Women's Metallic Flying Swallow Talisman Necklace

The Flying Swallow Talisman Necklace is a handcrafted sterling silver necklace designed to symbolise guidance, safe return and the journey home. Made in our London studio, this pendant features a swallow in flight, paired with a compass and guiding stars. Long associated with sailors and travellers, the swallow is a traditional symbol of safe passage and loyalty, returning to the same nest after migration, making it a powerful emblem of hope, direction and protection. Suspended from a fine belcher chain, it is designed for effortless everyday wear with a refined yet meaningful presence. Created in collaboration with Glasgow-based interior designer Anna Campbell-Jones, it brings together narrative design and symbolic storytelling in a contemporary modern heirloom necklace. Dower & Hall designs their jewellery to be worn and treasured. They can last forever if taken good care of. Luckily, there are several things you can do yourself to care for your jewellery. Here are a few simple guidelines to keep your jewellery looking its best. Perfume, skin and hair products can all react with silver causing it to tarnish, cause vermeil to erode and even damage stones, especially pearls. Avoid spraying perfume or hairspray directly onto your jewellery. Treat your jewellery with care, remove when doing physical work, playing sports etc. Hot weather and perspiration can also speed up the tarnishing process. Jewellery should always be removed before swimming and bathing as Chlorine can cause surface damage. Gently wipe the jewellery with a clean, soft cloth after each wear to remove dirt and oils from skin. At night store your pieces separately in a clean, anti-tarnish, compartmentalised box to avoid scratches. Colour: metallic
