Sold - Vintage 1960s 9ct Gold Heart Locket Necklace
Description
The Locket is perhaps the most mysterious and alluring pieces of jewellery. Only the wearer knows what secrets lie within the locket. It has to be the ultimate love token. During the Victorian era, young Victorian women would hide a picture of a man they admired, if the man offered up a lock of hair a marriage proposal usually would follow. Lockets were considered a statement of an intention to marry.
The most romantic of symbols, our heart shaped locket features beautiful ornate engraved flourishes on the front of the piece. The locket is set in 9ct yellow yellow gold. This pendant was hallmarked in Birmingham in 1961-62. The locket opens to reveal two areas pictures can be stored.
