This beautifully detailed antique Victorian oval locket is crafted in warm-toned gold, richer than yellow gold but not quite rose gold. Its balanced hue pairs effortlessly with a yellow gold chain, chosen to complement the natural warmth of the piece. The front and back are intricately engraved with swirling floral motifs and framed by a repoussé border that adds depth and character.
The locket is stamped “9CT B&F”, indicating it is made with solid 9K yellow gold on the back and front, while the internal structure is reinforced with another metal for strength, a trusted method used in antique jewelry to ensure both durability and beauty.
Inside, the locket opens to reveal space for two small photographs or keepsakes. It hangs from a fine yellow gold chain, newly added to complete the piece.
