Antique Hallmarked Gold Mourning Locket With 18 Inch 9ct Gold Chain Mascot powder compact There is some tarnish on

There is some tarnish on the base which I will leave

This little gem will never tarnish or need to be cleaned as it was coated with a layer of transparent enamel as one of the final stages in the manufacturing process

The lid is adorned with a 24 karat gold and sterling silver Damascene landscape and so this would be an ideal golden or silver wedding anniversary gift for her

The whole item is in super condition and it will never need to be cleaned due to the exacting manufacturing processes which involved applying a coat of lacquer to protect this vanity

Very pretty
