Historically, arms were only heritable by males, and therefore cadency marks had no relevance to daughters. As the 1st Earl of Liverpool had two sons by his first wife, Louisa Howard, Gerald Foljambe, bears the charge of the mullet, symbolic of the third son, Brevet Major Honourable Josceline Foljambe, that of the swift symbolic of the fourth son. The daughters cadency is unusually also marked with the same charges above the hearts. Condition Report: All stones present and correct. Two of the lockets have slightly different coloured glass frames to the reverse. Chain slightly discoloured at front Overall in good condition with some surface wear, nicks and scratchesCondition Report Disclaimer
