About the Item

This is a very early and rare Museum Quality Georgian Locket Pendant Necklace with an extraordinary hand painted portrait miniature of a child in a field of grass with a bouquet of roses and in a 10-12 Karat Gold Locket Frame. The portrait miniature is of the highest quality. The face of the child is exquisite as is the body and the diaphanous lace wrap. The child holds a bouquet of pink roses in the hand and a berry in the other hand. The rarity of the miniature is enhanced by the setting of the child in the field of grass and flowers. Finding miniatures with children and nature is very rare and these are highly coveted. The painting is from a very fine collection of early portrait miniatures that depict children, animals and nature in the scene. The frame is 10-12 Karat Rose Gold. The top loop is a gilt metal. The locket opens on the reverse to place a photo of your choosing. Finding a locket pendant with such beautiful imagery of the child is exceedingly rare and makes the jewel a highly regarded piece. This is a very early jewel - most likely dating to the 18th Century to early 19th Century. The jewel is worthy of the antique jewelry collections in the Victoria and Albert Museum in London and the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston. The locket pendant is 3 inches (78mm) tall including the bales. Without the bales the locket is 2 5/8 inches (65mm) tall and is 2 1/4 inches (56mm) wide. The locket weighs 33 grams.

1876 Victorian 9ct Gold Portrait Miniature Pendant and Brooch
Located in Skelmersdale, GB
This wonderful example of Victorian jewellery was created in 1876. It can be worn as a pendant or a brooch. Condition Report: Excellent The Details... Constructed from 9ct gold, this pendant features an oval porcelain plaque hand-painted with a miniature portrait. The reverse of the plaque is signed by the artist. Their name is difficult to decipher due to ageing. However, their initials appear to be L and M. It is dated 1876. The piece features a bail, so that it can be worn as a pendant. It also features a fastening mechanism, so that it may be worn as a brooch. The pin is attached to the brooch with a tube hinge and the brooch fastens with a traditional safety catch. The piece measures 5.5cm x 4.5cm. A Short History...
