A stunning antique Edwardian rolled gold double-sided glass photo locket containing photo portraits of a beautiful young woman and a handsome young chap in a WW1 army uniform.

Perhaps they were sweethearts? We will never know and this lovely locket can be enjoyed as it is or you could replace the pictures with your own photos, keepsakes or even gemstones.

The locket is rolled gold (gold filled) which, is a mechanically bonded overlay of solid gold, it is much thicker than modern electroplating and can withstand plenty of wear and use. It opens by gently unscrewing the bail at the top allowing access to the photo compartment inside. The glass covers are gently curved and the screw mechanism aligns perfectly to close the locket, screwing back tightly to keep the contents secure.

We have added a new 18" gold vermeil (gold plated sterling silver) belcher chain for immediate wear. Our chains are made in Italy, they are high quality and fully hallmarked. The belcher or rolo chain with its elegant round links is one of the most popular antique style neck chains still available today and they are perfect for these antique lockets.

MATERIALS: rolled gold/gold filled

HALLMARKS: stamped on the base 'rolled gold'

MEASUREMENTS: Locket, 1-1/2 inches high and 1" wide (40x25mm), depth 5.5mm

DATE: Edwardian, 1915.

WEIGHT: Total weight 7 grams (locket 4 grams)

CONDITION: Very, very good antique condition with expected signs of age and wear. The glass is damage free, the photos are faded and a little stained which simply adds to the antique charm of this truly lovely and romantic locket
