I am posting a prince of wales low grade gold necklace/brooch I picked up at a yardsale. It is real hair with 3 seed pearls. It is with original box with a note on the back which reads Great Grandmother Carol Adden's brooch, her mother's hair used in (lily) I believe 1760. Mrs. L.C. Mulford.
I am sorry my photos are not great but please keep in mind Im a collector and not a photographer. Hope you enjoy and thanks for looking.
