Description

A petite solid gold Edwardian portrait locket which was assayed (tested for purity) at Birmingham Assay Office in 1904. Ivy leaves, floral motifs and a blank heart cartouche grace one side of this diminutive piece. The reverse side is embellished with acanthus leaves and full sets of hallmarks.

Forget-me-not flowers symbolise true love and respect. Acanthus leaves represent eternal life. Ivy leaves denote devotion, loyalty or wedded bliss

This locket was crafted by Albert Ernest Jenkins. It is fitted with the original card backings, material linings, clear protective covers and frames and so it can accommodate photographs, portraits and locks of hair. The catch and hinge work perfectly. An elegant 18 inch necklace is included so that this locket can be worn immediately on receipt.

Excellent condition throughout.
