(SOLD) Antique Gorgeous Victorian Gold Latticework Locket with Diamonds
Stunning, Spectacular.
This is surely one of the most beautiful and visually striking Victorian lockets we have had the pleasure to acquire, circa 1860. It is, without a doubt, heirloom-worthy.
A lattice of gold wire rope work criss-crosses the front, studded at the intersections by nine tall, chunky old mine cut diamonds. A tenth diamond is at the bail. The gold is a rich, velvety, luxurious warm yellow. The overall effect is wonderfully tactile and engages the eye and imagination. We are reminded of an Imperial Russian jeweled egg!
The locket opens on a side hinge to reveal two empty compartments, ready for your personal mementos. Both rims are present, with one original glass cover. The locket closes securely with a satisfying “snap.” The reverse is graced with an applied, raised monogram — an extra luxe touch.
Chain shown not included.
Unmarked.
