Impeccably sourced, rare vintage jewelry
victorian turquoise and 14k gold open back locket
The Story
A striking Victorian locket from circa 1880s- early 1900s. This round, open-back locket features a geometric raised design. Seven turquoise cabochons, each approximately 3.65 mm, are bezel set down the center from top to bottom with roped detailing on either side. The same roped detailing circles the exterior of the piece for a lovely finishing detail.
Measuring 1.12 inches tall with its bale, it's a great size for an everyday piece. The reverse of the locket is removable with antique glass allowing for a photo measuring 0.73 inches round to keep someone you love close to your heart.
It hangs on a new F&B 18-inch 14k yellow gold chain hitting the perfect spot on the chest.
