SOLD: Georgian gold mourning locket with rose-cut diamond forget-me-not
$1,206.00
Out of stock
A late Georgian 18-carat gold mourning locket with a diamond forget-me-not on black enamel.
This piece is embellished with a border of handworked acorns. Fine machine engraving covers the immaculate front surface, apart from the wonderful original top ring.
Inside is a section of plaited hair under glass, with an inscription for the person being remembered: “Samuel Lord died 16 Jan. 1833 aged 51.”
The back has been slightly overpolished at some point, resulting in a lack of definition to the back machine engraving near the bottom of the locket and a slightly paler look to the gold. This is a minor condition issue only, and does not affect this jewel’s desirability.
