Victorian 9ct Floral Engraved Portrait Locket
A gorgeously haunting Victorian locket crafted in warm 9ct gold, with floral engraving to both sides, each face subtly different. The locket opens to reveal a delicate photograph of a young lady, printed on metal, giving it a softly ghosted appearance typical of mid-19th-century photographic innovation. Her tiny hand coloured details sit beautifully behind bevelled glass, creating a deeply evocative and intimate portrait.
Romantic, atmospheric, and remarkably well preserved, this is a poignant survivor of Victorian sentimentality and remembrance.
