490 Admirers Rare Find
Written by Olly Gerrish

A very unusual 18ct gold rectangular shaped locket that was made circa 1880. On one side it has an enamelled lady with a head band that has been set with natural split pearls and roses in her hair. She wears a drop earring set with a rose diamond. Above and below is a black enamel Greek key design. On the reverse is a highly ornate envelope with further black enamel key designs, that hinges open to reveal four compartments with a photograph on either side of each one.
