ABOUT THIS NECKLACE

Ornamental organics grace this Victorian locket necklace of imaginative design. Crafted in 18K gold, during the latter 19th century, the front of the locket has a soft satiny gleam and is decorated with a stylized snowflake motif and two exquisite gems of the sea--a lustrous angel skin cabochon coral orbited by shimmering freshwater pearls. The locket swings from an artsy element set with two cabochon corals and a single pearl that connects to a brightly burnished flat gas pipe chain. A distinctive beauty. Measures 15 inches and is slightly expandable.

About Victorian Jewelry

The eclectic Victorians didn’t limit themselves when it came to motifs and themes—if it struck their fancy, they turned it into jewelry. Sweet and sentimental with a distinct romantic streak, Victorian gems expanded upon their Georgian predecessors. The array of styles that blossomed (sometimes quite literally) during this era endure to this day.

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.
