This circa 1880 two-tone gold- filled double locket has an ornate lid decorated with leaves and a beautiful blue paste jewel rimmed with Etruscan Revival bead- and wire-work. The locket is 1 ˝" not including the ring above nor the hanging bail; width is 1 1/8" and depth is 5/8".
The grape leaves have stippled surfaces and alternate rose or pink gold finish with yellow finish.

In the center is a tanzanite lavender-blue color "grape" facetted prong-set crystal. These leaves lay on a bloomed gold surface surrounded by a raised, smooth rose gold border. The locket’s perimeter is an Etruscan Revival border of beaded wire scallops in yellow gold finish with rose gold raised circles. Such intricacy elevates the locket to a real artwork.
The side hinge opens 90 degrees. Both compartments have their original glass covers which are securely mounted in gold-filled frames, easily accessible thru notches in the bottom of the locket panels: no more chipped nails! I have not polished the locket, I prefer original patina in antique jewelry. Condition is very fine with no damage and only very light surface wear.
The period rolo link gold-filled or rolled gold chain is 24" with a spring-ring clasp and is in lovely condition.
This Victorian locket is truly beautiful and is worthy of being a family heirloom, any woman would be proud to wear this.
