(SOLD) Antique Art Nouveau Rooster Gold Locket with Diamond
Confident, Courageous.
A rooster crows only when it sees the light. Put him in the dark and he'll never crow. I have seen the light and I'm crowing.
— Muhammad Ali
The rooster is an age-old symbol among many societies, representing courage, confidence, new beginnings, France, the 10th sign of the Chinese zodiac calendar, and on and on. What does he mean for you?
This vibrant rooster is heralding in the new day with enthusiasm — wings outspread, beak open in full-throated crowing. The sun is the diamond in the sky, and the rooster’s feathers are in a 3D swirl, very much of the Art Nouveau period.
The frames and covers are present, ready to receive personal mementos. The locket opens and shuts properly.
We love this as a sentimental, personal talisman.
Chain shown not included.
Marked 18.
18k gold, diamond (estimated .07 ct)

*Please note that all dimensions and weights are approximate. Age-commensurate wear may be present. The back of the locket shows a few pinpoint-sized indentations — in our opinion normal antique wear.
