Aesthetic Period Victorian Silver Locket & Collarette

Circa 1880's, and THE most fashionable look at the time, an antique Silver locket and decorative chain in the Aesthetic style channelling an eclectic mix of influences from across the globe. A lovely example, with fancily hand engraved scrollery covering the centre panel, the whole which from its smooth shape feels so familiar in the hand. It measures a touch under two inches lengthwise and can hold two precious images. The beautiful handmade fancywork chain can be worn in a couple of different ways and measures 17 inches end to end including the large ring.
