The most common meaning for tulips is perfect or deep love. Because tulips are one of the first flowers to bloom in the spring, they can mean rebirth. Victorians often associated tulips with charity.
"Whitby's jet carvers worked long, arduous hours under grueling conditions. The jet was worked on a lathe and then carved, some of it by hand, and finally polished on a series of wheels." ~Victorian Jewelry.
Besides the normal wear, the overall condition is extremely impressive. There are no repairs or damages, except under the loupe, there are surface scratches, just lovely!
