The Story

Made during the late Victorian era, circa 1870s-1890s, this antique locket is a striking piece. With a smooth oval piece of agate on one side and onyx on the other, it's like two pieces in one. 

Measuring 1.2 inches tall, it's a great size. It's well made construction is unique. The center slides open hold two photos, back-to-back, of your choice.
