Vintage Planetary Gold and Gemstone Starry Ball Locket (4 Panel)

$3,450.00

We can’t resist a good ball pendant — or a good locket! Imagine our delight to find this circa 1950s, star-studded ball gold ball locket! A golden planet under a blanket of stars.

The locket opens via a clever hinge mechanism, with 4 photo panels that swivel out from the belly of the orb. Each panel should hold 2 images back to back..

We love the soft, satiny Florentine finish and the gem-set engraved stars. The locket is dense and weighty — so tactile and soothing to hold. We like to wear this on a longer chain.

Fabulous find for all you lovers of orbs, planets, stars, and, of course, lockets!

Chains and other pendants shown are not included. Gold is 14k yellow, with a 14k yellow plating.

Unmarked.

14k gold, sapphire, ruby, one garnet.

Dimensions and weight:

●  32 mm long (including loop)

●  23.5 mm wide/deep (diameter)

●  19.6 grams

Period: Mid-20th Century

*Please note that all dimensions and weights are approximate. Age-commensurate wear may be present. The seam of the ball was constructed with a solder that is lower than the 14k of the rest of the locket. Over time, that seam may develop a faint line of patina, which can be removed if desired by an application of steam by a local jeweler. The 14k loop is a new addition to replace one that was smaller and thinner.

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