Catherines Antique Jewellery Box has dated this Antique Gold Paste Locket to the Victorian era.
The locket is tested as 9ct gold and appears to be gold on the sides. The inner fittings are not gold. There are no hallmarks at all. The locket is circular and 4mm deep, well formed on both sides which gives it a very tactile feel. The locket is in good antique condition with only one very small ding on the back and a spot of tarnish at the top front of the locket. I would say its a medium sized locket and I have photographed it next to a one pound coin and a hand to get an idea of scale. The inside is in great usable condition with Plexiglas and photograph space on both sides. With some minor wear to the gold in accordance to its age. Closes well and clicks shut. The total weight is 5g
Photographs are ZOOMED with x5 magnification. SO Please Check Sizes And Weights before purchasing as JEWELLERY IMAGES ARE ENLARGED!! Dark areas are reflections on the gold.
