Description

DATE: Victorian, c.1870

A cool, minimalist antique oval locket carved from a single piece of black onyx, hollowed out with a gold bordered glass compartment at the back. It dates from the latter half of the 19th century, circa 1870, originally intended as a mourning piece. It’s perfectly formed and gorgeous, simplistic use of black and gold. Currently home to a colourised photograph of a young freckled boy, but ready to add your own photo.
