Antique Victorian Sterling Silver Engraved Locket
About the Item
Contrasts of smooth and frilly engraving make an unusual shield design on this Victorian Silver Locket c. 1860-1880. The shield shape at top is covered with abstract vines atop a larger shield of raised silver graduated orbs, bordered by silver twisted wire and tiny silver granulated balls. Below is the contrasting, shining, plain area showing an eye catching mixture of texture. See the photograph on the model for reference. The locket bale is original. The condition is excellent and any mark seen in the photograph is a reflection of light on silver. In whole, the pendant is a delight. It can be worn on a silver choker or chain at your chosen length. Two photographs can be inserted inside.
In the Victorian Era at this time in particular silver was very much in demand once Queen Victoria gave a gift of a silver necklace to Jenny Lind, the British Nightingale. Birmingham was a major producer of silver jewelry during this expanded demand. I buy only the pieces with the most unusual designs.

Antique Aristocratic Victorian Enamel and Diamond Tuxedo Locket
Located in Stamford, CT
A large Victorian black enamel and diamond locket locket that is the upmost of elegance while it suits all the fashion we wear today. If I were not in business I would treasure it and wear it with a Tuxedo jacket and blue jeans or a denim shirt. The locket has the matching diamond bale with three graduated stones. The center diamond is an old European cut of approximately .40 cts. G-H color VS2. It is surrounded by 10 small old cut diamonds. The back is a locket back with a frame that is removable. Your special memory will fit there. I have withheld superlatives. For me this piece is so especially beautiful that I want you to come up with your own. I do love the black and diamond...
