Description

Beautiful Antique 9ct gold Back and Front heart Locket set with paste stones. This pretty heart shaped locket measure 3cm by 2cm including the bale and decorated with a pretty star /flower of blue and clear paste stones. The locket is marked for 9ct back and front, which means the inner parts are not gold. The locket is in original condition inside with two empty spaces for pictures. The gold is brushed gold which gives it a matte finish. It is a lovely tactile object of good wearable size with a gold bale. The locket is in very good condition, the front is perfect the back has one tiny ding. I would say that this locket dates to the early 20th century around the 20s or 30s. It is a small to medium sized locket and I have photographed on a hand to give the scale. The inside is in good usable condition. Opens and closes well. The Total weight is 4.6g

Please Check Sizes And Weights As JEWELLERY IMAGES ARE ENLARGED. Dark areas are reflections on the gold.

BUY WITH CONFIDENCE: I try to accurately describe my items. I never knowingly mis-sell any item, so please read the description carefully. All items are checked by a professional Jeweller for authenticity; however no certificates are provided. If for any reason the item is found not to be genuine or as described a full refund will be given. So please buy with confidence.

Your jewellery will come in a modern gift box and not necessarily the one in the photograph.

Please also note that Antique and Vintage items will show some signs of wear commensurate with age.

Returns are accepted however buyer must pay return postage.

Finally - by purchasing a Used /Vintage/ Antique ring you are recycling a beautiful piece of jewellery and gemstone. In buying a ring which has been in circulation for this long is the most environmentally ethical way to purchase jewellery. Purchasing antique jewellery allows you to both support smaller local businesses and but encouraging the reuse of the vast amount of timeless jewels that are already in circulation and reduces the demand for further stripping of our planets resources.

A back and front locket is a piece of jewellery where the front and rear covers are made of solid gold, while the interior mechanism and inner rims are constructed from a base metal or gold fill for structural reinforcement.

Antique lockets were commonly crafted from 9ct or 15ct gold, often incorporating gemstones such as diamonds, sapphires, and seed pearls, alongside glass interior compartments for photographs or locks of hair.

Authentic pieces typically feature period-appropriate hallmarks, hand-cut gemstones, integrated hinge mechanisms, and signs of age-related wear such as light surface oxidisation.

Antique pendants can be suspended from contemporary trace chains for a mixed-era aesthetic, or layered with other fine gold necklaces to create a personalised curation.

Antique jewellery should be cleaned gently using a soft lint-free cloth and stored individually in padded boxes away from moisture and harsh chemical ultrasonic cleaners.
