A special peek into the careful tact of Victorian craftsmanship, this ornate locket pendant demands attention from all who are lucky enough to see it! Notice the repeated enamel Evil Eye motif as it's an exquisite hallmark of the Grand Period. Known also as the Nazar or Molocchio, this motif was made popular as a result of a rise in European tourism where many witnessed the popular Mediterranean symbol for the first time. Complimenting the classic Ultramarine of the guilloche enamel beneath the diamond cross, the color is often recognized as "Mourning Blue" and is often seen in Mourning jewelry throughout the Victorian era. As stately as the mysterious gentleman preserved behind the locket glass, this pendant is pure luxury!
