Victorian Oval Silver Locket with Ivy Leaf Detail

796R
440 Admirers
Written by Olly Gerrish

An attractive and fairly large silver oval shaped locket that was made in Birmingham in 1880. It has been engraved with an ivy motif on the front that literally means “Cling to me”. Around it are stars then a rope and eyelet motif on the outer edge. The Victorians were very fond of secret messages in jewels and this locket is a classic example. Inside is a compartment for a photograph.
