45 Admirers
Written by Olly Gerrish

A  lovely plain 15ct oval locket that was made circa 1880. It opens to reveal two compartments that at present have the original photograph of a lady in one compartment and a lock of her hair fastened with gold thread in the other compartment. Both can be removed if wanted.

It looks neat when worn on a medium length chain.
