Antique 18K Pools of Light Glass Heart Locket, French Victorian Romantic Pendant

This romantic Victorian-era treasure was crafted circa 1880. A heart-shaped pool of light locket, the front and back feature glass panels, which capture and reflect the light, creating a mesmerizing illusion of a delicate "pool" within. Held snugly in a rich and buttery 18k gold frame, this sentimental piece opens to guard preciously a photo, piece of hair, or pressed flowers. An heirloom of rare beauty, this antique embodies the romantic charm and meticulous artistry of the Victorian era. A perfect gift for Valentine's Day, these lockets are highly collectible pieces which are rare to come across due to the delicate nature of the piece.

CONDITION NOTES:
There is light gold frame loss, visible in photos but which does not affect the stability of the piece. The locket closes securely. It is small and could be used as either a charm or a locket. Check measurements as I've zoomed in to capture the details of the piece.
