ABOUT THIS NECKLACE

Turn your little black dress into a canvas for something stunning--this chic and exquisitely fashioned locket necklace. Masterfully embossed with a graceful scroll design around its perimeter, the center shines with a single bloom--set with a twinkling old mine-cut diamond-- and is decorated with white and dark blue enamel, while tiny gold flowers and flourishes add the finishing details. The lovely work of wearable art opens to reveal a double locket compartment, is engraved on the reverse with "RML," and suspends from a matching 20-inch-long 9-station chain. From Newark, New Jersey jeweler Wordley Allsopp-Bliss. A consummate Gilded Age treasure, artfully rendered in 14K gold.

About Edwardian Jewelry

Edwardians took the dark beauty of Victorian jewelry and dyed it platinum blonde. Light and airy filigree, worked with intricate millegrain and detailed designs in that durable metal, was liberally set with the “white” stones—pearls and diamonds chief among them. The Victorians’ sense of whimsy and beloved yellow gold didn’t disappear completely, though, even as the Edwardian era made way for the further-streamlined Art Deco.

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.
