14kt.
yellow gold LOCKET in a wonderful Victorian piece. The "front" is sardonyx which has been carved with the initials
"CRS". The initials are very stylized and could be other combinations
of initials. The back is uncarved carnelian. The locket opens and still has one
of its glass pieces. The locket flips and locks in place very tightly. The
sardonyx shows as the front, although as a locket, either side could be worn
facing out. The original pictures are in the locket
and show the same woman, first in a tintype as a young woman and the second as
an older woman. Both pictures show the woman wearing antique jewelry pieces. A
weighty and perfect piece, the locket could be worn as a pendant and was
probably originally a watch fob, perhaps from a loved one. The brooch is not
included with the locket. The piece is in excellent condition
