Antique Victorian Gold Enamel Pearl Heart Locket
This 15k heart locket is English circa 1890. It is a beautifully executed basket weave motif interspersed with lustrous natural creamy white pearls. The color of the enamel is a rich robin's egg blue and it is in perfect condition. The heart is plump, measuring 5/8 in depth. It measures 7/8 long without the bail x 3/4 across. The reverse has a locket with the original beveled glass framed in gold, and removable for a photo or lock of hair. The condition is excellent and the patina is rich. Tiny ding on the reverse near the removable glass, otherwise perfect.

The chain measures 15 inches, and is a double strand of fine early Victorian natural seed pearls. It is as lovely as the locket. This is a wonderful example of Victorian jewelry.
