The locket is thick and substantial, opening from the side to a roomy interior. The locket does not have any bezels or frames. It closes and opens securely with thumb tabs and is plated in yellow gold, likely around 9K. The open-back bale is decorative and original to the piece. The chain, purchased with the locket, is marked for 14K gold.
There is some wear to the plating, which has a combination of matte and polished finish, and the seed pearls show their age. Overall condition is still very good.
