ABOUT THIS NECKLACE

Lockets are perfect expressions of sentiment. They are fashioned in a myriad of styles, hold a keepsake of your choosing, and can be engraved. This transitional Victorian/Art Nouveau beauty, crafted in 9K rosy-yellow gold (thus most likely of British origin) with a soft, satiny finish, is decorated around its perimeter with a fleur-de-lys motif, sparkles with a single European-cut diamond, and opens to reveal a single photo compartment. The reverse is engraved with the monogram 'GBT,'  leaving you to muse upon who that might have been and what memento it might have contained, all while deciding how you will make it uniquely yours. Circa 1890-1900. It measures 1 1/4 inch across. The new 18-inch chain is 14K yellow gold.

About Art Nouveau Jewelry

Looking to go organic? Bummed out (with good reason) by the Industrial Revolution, Art Nouveau makers embraced the natural world and a return to the hand-craftsmanship of an earlier time. Their overlap with both the Victorian and Edwardian eras resulted in a great deal of cross-pollination. Though relatively short in its purest form, Art Nouveau’s flowing lines continued to weave their way into fine jewelry.

Jewelry Care

As with anything of value, especially sentimental value, taking good care of your vintage and antique jewelry from Lang will enhance its beauty and extend its lifespan. We encourage you to have your jewelry checked and cleaned by us or by your trusted local jeweler every six months, to ensure that each piece is in good wearable condition with all gemstones in place. It’s not uncommon for stones to loosen over time, and it’s much easier to tighten a loose stone than to replace a lost one! As stated in our Repair Policy, we strongly recommend that you allow us to perform any repairs, since our jewelers are specialists in restoring vintage and antique jewelry.
