A vivid bouquet — pink rose, golden daisies, blue aster, and a scattering of berries — is hand-painted onto a milk-white porcelain oval, framed in a twisted rope-edge gold-tone border. The locket opens to two empty photo wells, ready for a keepsake portrait. It's a piece with real craft to it, more miniature painting than costume jewelry, the kind of detail work rarely seen on newer lockets.
Materials: Gold-tone base metal, hand-painted porcelain oval panel
