Descripción
This exquisite antique Victorian locket, crafted in warm 9ct rose gold, showcases the intricate artistry of the era. The oval-shaped locket features beautifully detailed engravings on both the front and back, adding a timeless elegance to the piece. It is marked 9ct BACK & FRONT, signifying its quality and craftsmanship.
Lockets like this were considered the ultimate love token in Victorian times. Young Victorian women would often hide a picture of a man they admired inside the locket. If he reciprocated by offering a lock of hair, it was seen as a prelude to a marriage proposal. Only the wearer knows what secrets lie within this locket, making it both a statement of love and an heirloom with deep sentimental value. Whether worn as a keepsake or a personal memento, this locket captures the romance and tradition of an era long past.
Gold back and front lockets were a popular design during the Victorian era, featuring solid gold on the outer surfaces with a more durable metal, such as brass, used for the interior. This technique allowed for the beauty of gold to be showcased while ensuring the piece remained lightweight and sturdy.
