Silver Assyrian Victorian Locket

208C
40 Admirers
Written by Olly Gerrish

Ninip the God of Assyria, an ancient country of Asia, is depicted on this Victorian silver locket. There was a great revival of the study of ancient peoples in the late Victorian period, which led to depictions of ancient art in jewellery and furniture and pictures. The locket opens to reveal two compartments for photographs.
