Please remember that due to your computer’s screen settings, in real life the item may not match the colour you see here. My photos are NEVER to scale so please check the actual measurements below. Here I have an antique solid silver locket pendant. It features a very ornate hand-engraved ivy leaf pattern on the front. In Victorian symbolism, ivy represented a strong bond between 2 people, whether they were married partners or best friends. Inside , it contains a photograph in the right hand side, behind it’s original frame. In the left, behind the original glass and frame is a braided piece of hair. Of course, you could remove these. As with many antique pieces, it’s unmarked but tests as solid silver. The main body of the locket (without the bale at the top) measures 5.3cm high and 4.2cm wide. Weighs 30.5 grams. Condition: Very good uncleaned antique condition. Has a couple of small dinks, one on the front which is hidden by the engraving and another on the back. The hinge and closure work well and it snaps shut nicely. Overall, it just has the usual light wear and tarnish which you’d expect on an antique item. International buyers PLEASE READ.

Please remember that due to your computer’s screen settings, in real life the item may not match the colour you see here. My photos are NEVER to scale so please check the actual measurements below. Here I have a fine Victorian Scottish Agate and Citrine bracelet. It features 4 carved agate panels, with engraved solid silver caps, interspaced with bezel-set natural deep yellow Citrine gemstones. It fastens with a hook clasp and has a working padlock to hold that clasp shut. The padlock has a glazed hairwork panel on one side, and a bloodstone on the other. A past owner has also added a safety chain. As with many antique pieces, it’s unmarked but tests as solid silver. Measures 6.75 inches long and 15mm wide across the front. The padlock is 3.3cm by 1.9cm. It weighs 26.3 grams. Condition: Very good uncleaned antique condition. No cracks or damage. A reinforcing strip of silver has been added to the back of one of the panels at some point but there are no other signs of repair. Just has the usual surface marks and tarnish to the silver which you’d expect on an antique item. International buyers PLEASE READ.
