Captivating Victorian Gold & Diamond Picture Locket. Ref:aslc156
Victorian Gold Locket set with Oval Old Cut Diamond

Description

Displaying one of Gold's most prominent attributes the front of this locket has been skilfully crafted to create an elaborately striking design which encompasses a single Oval Old Cut Diamond.

Gold has long been revered, not only for it's beauty but equally importantly for it's versatility and the Victorian designers and manufacturers were eager to experiment with Gold's capabilities.

This locket is a perfect example of the craftsmanship of the time. At 2.5" (6.5cm) in length it is a substantial piece of superb quality and weight. It remains in wonderful condition and the interior appears to have been unused. As the photograph shows there is a small hole cut into the case lining purely to benefit the Diamond.

Despite the lack of a hallmark there is no doubt that the locket is Solid Gold, although it's specific carat would only be apparent through testing. This unfortunately entails making scratches into the Gold and as this would obviously mark an otherwise perfect piece of jewellery we have decided against testing.
