art nouveau repousse 14k yellow gold locket necklace

A breathtaking antique piece from the Art Nouveau era, you'll want to keep this locket close to the heart for years to come. 

Created in rich 14 karat yellow gold, a repoussé woman's head is seen among open flowers in the quintessential Art Nouveau style.  The locket shows its age in the best possible way with the rich patina making the raised work pop and gold glow.

Art Nouveau was a brief, but glorious period of design at the end of the 19th century, circa 1895-1905.  Characteristic for its depiction of natural elements, particularly flora and fauna, beautiful women were often shown as well.  This locket is a fantastic example of the art form.  

At 1.74" tall and 1.33" round, it's a substantial size locket without being overpowering.  It holds two 1.14" round photos and is a gorgeous piece to hold your loved ones near.

The locket hangs on a vintage 17.5 inch 14k yellow gold link chain.
