1887 Victorian Sterling Silver Locket

A gorgeous and rare antique locket hallmarked for 1887.  Fashioned in sterling silver with gorgeous details on the front.  This is a beautiful example of Victorian silver jewellery.

A very solid locket in amazing condition with a lovely geometric design to the front, that almost looks like an old fashioned shirtfront.  She was made by Albert Charles Revell and Company of Vyse Street, Birmingham UK in 1887.

The locket is in excellent antique condition, especially considering that it is 137 years old!  The back of the locket has some very light scratches and tiny dents, but nothing that detracts from her beauty.  It closes with a satisfying "click".  The bale which is hallmarked for silver as well, is large and strong.

Dimensions:  59mm high (including the bale), 33mm wide and 11.5mm deep
