Description:
Lovely large vintage 19th century etched and engraved gold plated locket that has two beautifully made sides, one that is engraved "Ella" in an older cursive font. The other side of this antique locket pendant has a beautiful pastoral scene that includes the landscape of a small village with one tall tower in the center. Rays emanate from the scene. Both the front and the back edges have etched designs that frame their featured central etched images. On the outer sides of the locket, the rims are also etched. The locket is attached to its chain with a spring ring clasp.

This lovely piece hangs from a unique heavy rope chain that ends with a single drop chain. Where the drop meets the chain is a sweet little flower accented piece that connects the chain to the single drop length of chain. The total drop length of this chain when worn in 22".

Inside the locket are two old daguerreotype photos: one of a woman and one of a man. Both photos are under glass.

The top of this pocket watch style locket has a large round bale loop at the top where it attaches to the heavy chain. This bale loop has some decorative etched designs on it that compliment the locket perfectly.

The hinge for this vintage watch case locket is on the bottom, and it opens from the top.

The antique gold plated locket hangs on its vintage and heavy specialty rope chain. The chain’s older style of a spring ring clasp opens and closes securely.
