Large Antique Victorian 10K Yellow Gold Machine Turned Pocketwatch Photo Locket

Description

This antique Victorian, 10 karat yellow gold photograph locket was made during the mid 1800s. This piece is in the form of a pocket watch and both panels are covered in classic machine turnings. This is a fine example of 19th century jewelry. The locket still has an antique photo inside, a daguerreotype or tintype of a confederate soldier. The other side has the original velvet underneath what looks like the original glass, which is broken. This is a large locket and it has never been monogrammed. To more easily change out the photographs, you can take a small suction cup to get the glass panels out.The front, back, edges and frame are 10K gold, tested and guaranteed. I don't know if it's gold filled or plated. This piece is in great overall condition, especially considering age. Diameter: 1 5/8 inches. The watch fob loop is another 3/4". Shipped USPS.
