Antique Victorian Large Lavalier Bronze Locket Choker/ Necklace, 1910 Era.
$175.00
Purchase on EtsyI have had this lavalier locket necklace for a while now and have worn it for years and get so many compliments on it, but now that I am retired, I really don't dress up anymore. This piece is exceptionable and very hard to find. It is made of bronze, two large lockets for your pictures, 22" total, seed pearls, removable lavalier pendant, etched rose pattern on the back and on the inside of locket, the necklace chain you can wear either way, one side is fancy the other tubular, the closure in a push in but I think the top cover is missing on it, never noticed it but it does work fine but could be replaced. The locket is gorgeous and snaps shut just fine with beautiful etching inside. It does show some wear on the pendant with verdigris, but I am not doing that a light vinegar and water cleaning will remedy that. These are very HARD to find in this condition for the age, 1910-20 era, over 100 years old. This is a timeless keepsake and should be loved and preserved by the next owner, I am amazed these are not in the VERY large junk heap of vintage jewelry, so sad!
