About the Item

Antique Victorian sterling silver locket dated 1876. This extraordinary silver locket is hallmarked for Birmingham and made by Horace Woodward & Co.

This exquisite locket has delicate engraved detail, and it presents beautifully when worn. It opens to reveal two picture compartments. Condition: light surface scratches, wear, and a couple of dings to the front and especially to the reverse ( Please see attached images).
