Description:
An architectural, Victorian-inspired design — a small oval locket suspended and swinging freely within an ornate silver-tone frame, complete with decorative finials at top and bottom. The locket's gold-tone face is engraved with a star flower and trailing leaves beside a blank oval cartouche left open for a monogram. A distinctive piece that catches movement as well as light.
