Description:
A rather unique and lovely vintage round gold filled photo locket on a vintage 12K gold filled chain that is 18" long. The front of this locket, made by the W&H Company, has a monogram of EAM in an old cursive font. The back is plain and has a satin finish. This is a circa early 1900s era locket.
NOTE:
The hallmark inside this locket is for the Wightman & Hough Company that was established in 1856 in Providence, Rhode Island. They manufactured gold-filled, rolled gold, and sterling silver jewelry. Each piece was hallmarked with a heart containing the initials “W&H”. They were known for lockets, medallions, and seals. They were in business through the Art Deco era.
Inside this locket are two round photo wells AND a two sided religious medal in the center. The medal has Jesus on one side and Mary on the other. The medal is hinged and sits between the 2 photo wells.
This antique round religious locket hangs from a vintage hallmarked 18” long 12K gold filled chain. The chain is hallmarked near the clasp.
The locket, that has its hinge on the bottom, opens from the top. The locket closes securely. The clasp on the vintage gold filled chain opens as intended and closes securely.
