A delightful vintage 1970s sterling silver oval locket obliquely engraved on the front in a floral pattern. In an antique style, it's a classic English locket and very pretty.
The locket is a dainty size and opens from the side to reveal 2 black satin lined stations to house your precious photos or tiny keepsakes. The picture rings are fixed in place so photos simply tuck underneath them. We have added a new Italian fine sterling silver curb chain so this little beauty is ready to wear straight out of the box.
The locket is in very good condition, with some light wear and faint surface scratches as to be expected in an vintage piece. It closes tightly with a satisfying click. All of our jewellery is professionally cleaned and polished so it's ready to wear or to give as a gift.
MATERIALS: sterling silver throughout
MEASUREMENTS: 1" (2.5cm) tall without the bail loops, 1-1/4" (3.4cm) including the bail loops, 5/8" (1.8cm) wide, 5.3mm deep. The chain is 18" (46cm) and we also have them available in a 16" length so if you prefer a shorter chain please make a note of it on your order.

HALLMARKS: locket isn't marked and we have acid tested to verify it is solid sterling silver, chain stamped '925'
