Victorian 9ct Gold & Two Colour Gold Overlay Locket with Flowers & Leaves Motif

37U
320 Admirers Rare Find
Written by Olly Gerrish

A wonderful 9ct gold locket that was made circa 1880. It has been decorated on the front with leaves and flowers that have been applied with two colour gold overlay. This was a time consuming and effective process but was well worth the effort. The reverse has been engraved with roses within an intertwined border. It is visually a stunning locket. It opens to reveal two glazed compartments for photographs.

Ollys Pick

This is the first locket that we have had that is gold with two colour gold overlay. Normally they are silver with gold overlay.
