Lacrima Cordis

This is a striking sterling silver gothic necklace, rich with symbolism and devotion. Heavy chains fall into a dramatic drop, secured by a traditional T-bar fastening.

At its heart hangs an ornate embossed Vesta case in the shape of a heart, a vessel of sentiment and secrecy, leading the eye downward to an antique devotional engraved cross. Both pieces are from the Victorian era. The layered chains create a piece that feels both ceremonial and deeply personal — a talisman of faith, love, memory, and eternal vows.

Designed to be worn as a statement, this necklace carries the quiet weight of history: devotion worn close to the heart, and remembrance carried openly.

Perfect for lovers of gothic, Victorian, ecclesiastical, and dark romantic jewellery.

The whole piece is oxidised to show off it's ornate features.

The chain length is 17" with a further 6.5" drop to the base of the cross.
