Antique Victorian Pearl Ruby 9ct Gold Locket
Description
This charming Victorian round locket is a classic example of sentimental jewellery from the late 19th century. Crafted in 9ct rose gold, its surface is adorned with a delicate arrangement of rubies and seed pearls, a celestial-inspired motif symbolising protection, passion, and purity, all themes deeply cherished in Victorian adornment.
The locket is made in 9ct gold back and front, meaning both outer panels are solid gold while the internal frame is strengthened with base metal. This traditional construction allowed Victorian jewellers to create elegant yet durable pieces that could be worn and treasured for generations.
Inside, the locket opens to reveal space for two photographs or keepsakes. Its soft rosy tone, polished curves, and meaningful gemstones make it an especially romantic piece, ideal for everyday wear or gifting with sentiment.
