It is miraculous for a locket so old to present in such pristine condition! This is so elegant with a classic book / photo album shape with a body of warm Rose Gold. One side features a cameo of a girl carved in cornelian while th other is a piece of gate/onyx. The sides are rounded and so smooth and it has a thick jump ring so it is ready to wear.
The hinge and clasp are in perfect working order and enclosed inside is the original frame/bezel and glass/glazed cover.! HISTORY & MARKS
