Victorian Gold & Enamel Mourning Hair Locket Brooch Seed Pearls

About the Item

Wonderful VICTORIAN 14K GOLD Mourning Pin Locket. This has a glass back that would have housed a lock of hair or a picture of your loved one that had passed on. Looks like it has not been used, amazing quality and workmanship on this piece. Black onyx & gold work all over the piece. Center Seed Pearl motif on top of what looks to be black onyx or jet, but I believe it's black onyx. 8 Seed pearls around the outside and the center has 5 seed pearls. I see a tiny sliver of separation in the gold at the bottom. This one has an original pin back, old C style. Measuring 35.50 or 1.40" wide x 27.78mm or 1.09" top to bottom. This is out of a massive collection of Hopi, Zuni, Navajo, Southwestern, sterling silver, costume jewelry and fine jewelry from one collector. Be sure to check our store front for more fabulous pieces from this collection. We have been selling this collection on 1st dibs since 2013. You can Follow us via storefront as well.
