Impeccably sourced, rare vintage jewelry
french victorian pearl and 18k gold locket
The Story
Beautiful and substantial, this Victorian era French made locket is an antique treasure.
Large in scale, this 18 karat rosy-yellow gold piece is striking. Ornately designed, warm gold and creamy pearls make a great combination. Nine pearls accent the raised and applied gold elements throughout. A nicely sized creamy pearl hangs from the bottom giving the locket movement. It finishes with a tapered bale set with five seed pearls giving the piece a cohesive look and feel.
The reverse of the locket opens to hold the photo or memento of your choice. Measuring 2.8 inches in total length, it's a substantial piece. We love it worn as an heirloom locket on its own or stacked with other favorite necklaces.
Available to purchase with or without a new F&B 18 inch 14k yellow gold chain.
