About the Item
A Victorian pearl, and yellow gold brooch, comprising eighteen seed pearls, in 15 karat yellow gold.
This lovely Victorian locket is engraved with a pretty floral and scrolling design across the front. The locket is engraved with scrolling, star and circle designs to the back, in a concentric formation. At the centre, there is a shield-shaped cartouche, which could be engraved with initials. To the front, is a seed pearl set garter or belt motif, which symbolised eternity, loyalty, and strength. It is likely this locket would have once contained photos of the wearers spouse and / or children. The locket opens on a hinge, to reveal 2 compartments. One compartment is complete with an oval metal bezel, used to hold photos in place. The glass is no longer present. The locket sports a sturdy jump ring bale, allowing for wear with a chain. The locket is in good condition. Wear and tear acquiescent with age. Please note, the chain you see in the photos is for display only, and not included.

Antique Victorian 9K Yellow Gold Oval Engraved Locket Ring
Located in Staines-Upon-Thames, GB
An antique yellow gold ring, comprising one oval shaped locket compartment, in 9 karat yellow gold, to a band of 9 karat yellow gold.
This amazing ring is set to the centre with an oval shaped head, which is beautifully tactile, like a smooth pebble. The oval is beautifully engraved to one side with a heart motif, and elegant scrolls. The engraved panel opens on a hinge, revealing a secret locket compartment. Rings like this were popular in the Victorian era and are often referred to as ‘poison’ rings. They are rare pieces, and are not often found, let alone in wearable condition. Photographs or small mementos could be placed within the locket, the heart shaped engraving would suggest this ring had a sentimental purpose, you can feel the love associated with it, when you wear this ring. The shoulders lead to a carved band of polished yellow gold. The locket snaps shut securely, and it does rattle slightly as is common with rings like these, but the hinge is still strong. The ring is in good condition, with a tiny ding to the underside of the locket compartment. This ding does not affect wearability and cannot be seen when worn. Wear and tear acquiescent with age.
The head of the ring measures 10.7mm high, and 13.2mm wide. The band measures 2.7mm wide at the back.
Gross weight: 1.68g
Ring size: approximately a UK – K US – 5.25 EU – 50 with some leeway either side, due to the shape of the back of the ring
Hallmarks: 9.375 (9 karat gold), shield for Chester assay, date letter ‘N’ for 1896, makers mark “GKL”, likely for George K...
