This locket is perfect for all of you history buffs! George Washington (born Feb. 22, 1732) served as the first constitutional president of the United States from 1789-1797. He was commander of the Continental Army in the American Revolutionary War and is seen by many Americans as the "Father of Our Country" because of his role in the revolution and subsequent independence and formation of the United States. He died in 1799 and at his funeral, it was told that Washington was "First in war, first in peace, and first in the hearts of his countrymen".

The paper has a lovely pearlescent sheen and it's simply stunning in it's brass frame. The photograph is mounted on an antique oxidized brass locket pendant which hangs on a brass rolo chain. It's sealed with a glass-like coating for protection and shine and the chain is finished with a lobster clasp. Length-16 inches but can be lengthened to 18 per your request!
Inside the locket, there are 2 empty recessed areas for you to mount your favorite pictures of your own choosing. These openings measure 3/4 of an inch around. The outside diameter of the locket measures 27mm (just over 1 inch).
Enjoy!
