Victorian Hardstone Cameo Locket Necklace Hand Carved Antique Book Chain 1870
About the Item
THIS IS A SUPERB VICTORIAN PICTURE LOCKET NECKLACE WITH A HAND CARVED HARDSTONE CAMEO OF A BEAUTIFUL WOMAN. THE LOCKET HANGS FROM A WONDERFUL BOOK BELCHER CHAIN. THE NECKLACE DATES TO C1860-1890.
The locket features a stunning hard stone hand carved Cameo of a woman in exquisite clorthes with a beautiful face, wonderful hair and wearing a pendant earring. The work of the artisan is absolutely superb. Carving hardstone cameos requires much greater skill and artistry than shell cameos. This white and black onyx carving is magnificent.
The locket is Gold-Filled with a braided surround on the front. The reverse has an open work filigree design. The chain is a wonderful gold filled belcher link chain of great beauty. I love the design of the 3 bales with their wonderful finish.
The Victorian book chain is 17 inches long.
The locket without the bales is 33mm tall and 28mm wide and 15mm deep.
The locket opens to reveal places for 2 pictures or mementos.
The locket and chain date to the Victorian period - c1860-1890.
The necklace weighs 31 grams.
