This impressive and substantial Victorian silver locket is beautifully shiny and in excellent antique condition. Featuring an identical front and reverse with a repeating vertical twisted silver pattern, it is a lovely example of craftsmanship of the time. In the middle lies a glass partition, common in France but difficult to find elsewhere, which swings back and forth between sides and can be used to store a picture or special memory. Hallmarked with a boar's head on the bail, the locket is between 800-900 silver purity as guaranteed by the Paris assay office. This locket closes with a very satisfying snap and has no notable signs of wear. It looks perfect hanging on a long guard chain.
