A lovely 9ct gold Victorian pocket watch key. I do believe this particular key will always be up in one of my most liked. I'm presuming it just a frosted glass unless someone tells me different. Neil

I think it's called camphor glass in antique jewelry, often used for lockets or rings with room for a memento, does your's have an opening? Just a wonderful piece.
I will have a look when I get home. How exciting !!

Hi truthordare finally got round to check if this key opened and unfortunately it doesn't. Still a beautiful item though. Neil
I agree, meant to admire the glass with the gorgeous setting. Thanks Neil.
