There is nothing quite like an antique locket worn around your neck with photos of those close to you inside, and here is a very beautiful and attractive antique photo locket that was made in the form of a book.
Dating from the late Victorian period of the 1890's, this locket holds two photos inside and was made in 15 carat gold. 15 carat gold often has such a lovely warm rose gold colour to it and achieves a very beautiful patina over time as can be seen here in this locket.
Measuring 15.8mm wide by 21.8mm tall, the front and back has a wonderful key lock design that is further highlighted by being hand engraved. The hand engraving adds that extra element of beauty and shows how much time and attention to detail that went into making this locket 130 years ago.
Always fashionable and stylish, this antique locket will always be loved and admired from near or far.
