An oversized oval locket, the entire front and back etched in a dense floral and vine pattern reminiscent of Victorian revival design. It opens on a side hinge to reveal two convex glass photo windows, ready for portraits on both sides. The bail and generous scale suggest it was made to be a real statement piece worn as a pendant rather than a dainty everyday locket.
