Description:
Lovely antique gold filled round photo locket on a new 14K gold filled chain. The locket front features an etched starburst shape that is set with a clear round diamond gemstone in the very center of the circular pendant. The small diamond chip that is bead set in the center of an etched starburst is approximately .03mm in size. The back of this vintage locket has what appears to be the monogram "MVS" or "MVL" in an old and very swirling cursive font. The locket closes securely. The locket is circa early 1900s in age.
Inside the locket there are two round wells for photos. The compartments have the frames and plastic covers still intact.
*Gold shell is a somewhat uncommon marking for jewelry, but was used in the past to indicate the fraction denominating the portion of the piece (by weight) that is gold. For example 1/4 Gold Shell as noted on this locket means that 1/4 or 25% of the locket is 10K gold by weight.
This antique round locket hangs from a vintage, new 20" long 14K gold filled curb chain. The bale is a plain oval loop. The locket, that has its hinge on the side, opens and closes securely. The spring ring clasp on the new curb link chain also closes securely.
A classic vintage necklace with a bit of bling and a wonderful ornate swirly monogram!
