Antique Victorian Etruscan Revival Locket 18ct Gold

Details

An exquisite antique Etruscan revival locket from the late Victorian era fashioned in solid 18ct yellow gold with a ribbed mid-section lined with rope detailing.  

Etruscan revival pieces were crafted in the mid 1800s when ancient Etruscan jewellery was unearthed in tombs outside of Rome beginning a fascination with the style and giving birth to these beautiful pieces which were crafted in the same decorative fashion.  

It’s a high-quality piece and has a pleasing patina and smooth touch. It’s complete with rims and windows within so two cherished photographs can be stored and kept safe. 

We recommend you insure for £2,000. We can provide a written Valuation on completion of the sale.
