(SOLD) Antique French Maltese Cross Foldout Locket (8 Images)

$6,550.00
Sold

Exceptional, Timeless.

How do we even begin to capture all that is special about this locket?

Shall we start with the masterful engine turning front and back? The Maltese cross delineated in crisp black enamel against the rich gold? The harmony of the old mine cut diamonds accented with opals?

Wherever we begin, we must culminate with the cherry on top — inside, a hinged accordion of 4 frames folds out, ready to accommodate up to 8 of your treasures — photos, love notes, what-have-you. We have seen other multi-image lockets, but this may be the first that we have encountered in this generous configuration.

A blank cartouche on the reverse of the locket is ready for a personalized engraving if so desired.

This beauty is definitively heirloom-worthy, ready to keep the pages of your stories.

Chain shown is not included.

Marked with French eagle’s head and unidentified maker’s mark.

18k gold, diamond, opal, enamel.

Dimensions and weight:

●  38 mm long

●       22.2 mm wide

●       10.5 mm deep

●       17.1 grams

Period: Victorian

*Please note that all dimensions and weights are approximate. Age-commensurate wear may be present.

*For deliveries outside of the continental U.S., please contact us for shipping information.
