Antique Victorian rolled gold glass locket. This pendant is very unusual, glass lockets are not common to find. This piece is made from rolled gold, which is a thin layer of gold on a base metal, fused together by heating rather than layered, this type of gold is of a higher standard than gold plating. The bale of the locket unscrews, loosening the glass panes allowing you to place a picture, lock of hair or a thin momento would be able to fit into this locket. The pendant hangs from a new 9ct yellow gold chain measuring 18". The locket is in excellent condition, measuring 4.3cm / 1.6" (including bale) in length and 2.7cm / 1" in width.
Please note, one of the glass panes has a slight nick out of the top which can be faintly seen, it does not take away from the piece.
