£100.00
A poignant piece of Georgian jewellery from circa 1820, this double mourning locket pendant features a 9k gold case housing two compartments. One side contains mourning hair—a touching keepsake tradition of the era—whilst the other remains blank for a second memorial or personal memento.
The locket bears authentic signs of age and wear befitting its two-century history. The rear lens carries a small chip, and the surface shows scratching from use. The gold case displays wear to the bale, all visible in the accompanying photographs. The case itself is unmarked.
A genuine antique piece with genuine character, ideal for collectors of Georgian jewellery and historical mourning jewellery or as a distinctive statement pendant for those drawn to historical sentiment and craftsmanship.
Size including bale 4.0 x 2.8 cm or 1.6 x 1.1 inches.
Weight 9.7 grams.
