We are delighted to offer this stunning antique Victorian 'puffy' heart locket brooch made c.1890.
The brooch is made from solid 18ct gold and has a wonderful 'buttery' yellow gold tone that exudes Victorian elegance and opulence.
From the top bar suspends a freely moving heart locket which has been meticulously hand engraved with the most splendid scrolled acanthus motifs which not only reflect light wonderfully but also displays the high level of goldsmithing and craftsmanship of the period.
Owing to its design, it can be worn on a variety of clothes whether be it a blouse for the summer or on a coat in the winter as a lapel/chest brooch.
The reverse side presents a glass back locket which can be unmounted to insert a photo.
A truly exemplary piece of Romantic and endearing Victorian jewellery, ideal for antique lovers and those who wish to wear a distinguished choice, bound to be a conversation starter.
The brooch is unmarked as is common with articles of this period and as such we have tested it, indicating 18ct gold.
All of our jewellery come with a complimentary hard shell gift box with a velvet interior.
