Excellent
Quality 18ct Yellow Gold C.1900s Antique Photo Locket Pendant 3.6g
This
is a top quality phot locket pendant designed to hang on a fine link bold neck
chain. It is unmarked; tests confirm it is a minimum of 750 for its 18ct yellow
gold fineness. We estimate that it dates to the early 1900s through to 1920 or
thereabouts.
It
is a small round pendant with a margin if tight openwork of repeating flower
and leaf motifs. This surrounds a raised bezel with crimped edge that holds a
very faded photo under a piece of clear domed crystal glass. The rear has a
closed back with a fixed bale and jump ring. The photo is removed by gently opening
the crimping on the bezel.
