    I bought this locket a few months ago, thinking it was rolled gold. It actually tested as 9 carat gold when I got home.
    Ita a victorian pocket watch-style locket. The guilloche pattern is enigne turned. It was made around 1870 I guess.
    It still needs a 'ring' so I will be able to wear it on a chain.
    Its about 2 cm in diameter. So its a decent size.
    I already mentioned I LOVE lockets. It brings out my romantic soul. :-)
    So I was very happy with this find. Its really well made, I like the details on it.
    I hope you like it as much as I do.

      I like how the traditional foliage frame contrasts with the machine-age looking center.
