An unusual 9ct back and front locket that was made circa 1870. It has three hinged compartments that open to reveal six glazed compartments for either photographs or locks of hair. The outside has been intricately engraved with leaves and flowers.  Some components such as the hinges are metal hence the term 9ct back and front.
