A small place to keep a treasured photograph or personal memento. This antique gold locket has the soft warmth of yellow gold with a delicate rose-champagne tint. Fine hand engraving across the front gives it the graceful character of Art Nouveau jewellery, while a single blue sapphire adds a vivid point of colour.

The locket opens and closes securely. The reverse is personally engraved with the initial “J” and the date “31.08.19” (31 August 1919), preserving a small part of the locket’s history. Please look closely at the photographs for the surface details and signs of age.
