Oval in shape with a gently pillowed profile this lovely quality vintage 1970s English sterling silver locket is a medium size as engraved on the front in a beautiful forget-me-not flower design. A fan-shaped reeded bale at the top adds to her feminine Art Nouveau inspired appeal and we have added a new sterling silver chain.
The locket opens from the side to reveal 2 stations for photos and it still has its original red paper liners and clear plastic covers. They have never been removed and we have left them that way. The picture frames are fixed, photos simply tuck underneath to hold them in place.
Pretty and feminine this gorgeous locket is ready to wear right out of the box, a perfect vintage jewellery gift or special treat for yourself
