Antique Onyx and Pearl Mourning Locket, Star, 9k Gold

About the Item

I don't know about you but I love this charming antique onyx and pearl mourning locket! It is a conversion piece, neatly converted from a brooch, it features rich high polished, inky black onyx set with a central pearl set star in yellow gold. The locker has a rich bloomed gold bezel rim with beading. She's such a decadent beauty and one of our favourite styles of antique jewellery with the rich luxe colours and celestial twist. It looks great added to an antique gold long chain or a black ribbon necklace. To the reverse there is a locket panel, bordered in gold and glazed, currently empty, this can be removed to replace with your own special memento. Such a beautiful piece of mourning jewellery. Marks and era: English make,19th century, Victorian era, unmarked tests as 9ct gold, later converted from a brooch. Condition: Good used condition overall, some age commensurate light wear and signs of use, locket reverse slightly loose. Approx measurements: 0.70" width 1.45" length including the bale. Weighs approx 6.85 grams Any questions or queries please contact us. FREE WORLDWIDE SHIPPING.
