Seller's description

🌟🌟🌟 We'll be venturing abroad from 11/1 to 11/15 - all orders will be sent out on Monday, November 16th! Hang tight - it'll be worth the wait!🌟🌟🌟

Extra large and undeniably striking, this antique Victorian Whitby Jet locket is a beautifully preserved example of 19th-century mourning jewelry—rich in sentiment and craftsmanship.

The generously sized locket is intricately carved, featuring a detailed forget-me-not cross motif set against a finely etched background. The raised design showcases exquisitely sculpted leaves and delicate forget-me-not flowers, symbolizing remembrance and enduring love.

Opening to reveal a double-sided photo compartment, the interior is complete with original covers—ready to hold treasured photographs or keepsakes. Substantial in scale at 3 inches and approximately 25mm thick, this piece makes a bold yet meaningful statement.

Suspended from a fine sterling silver double rolo link chain, it offers a beautiful contrast to the deep, velvety black of the Whitby Jet.

A rare and highly collectible piece of authentic Victorian mourning jewelry—timeless, symbolic, and just as wearable today as it was nearly two centuries ago.

Materials: Whitby Jet, Sterling Silver
Measurements: The locket measures 3 inches tall, 1 7/8 inches wide, and 25mm thick. The chain measures 17 1/4 inches long.
Weight: 63.4 grams
Hallmarks: The bale is impressed with a stamp nB and another mark. The chain and bale are tested and guaranteed to be sterling silver
Circa: 1850-1860 Civil War Era
Condition: Very, very good condition with one very tiny, minor flake near the hinge on the back side. The locket closes with a firm snap.
