An antique sterling silver locket featuring a delicate 9ct gold tulip applied to the front. The bloom is rendered in rose gold, while the leaves are highlighted in green gold, creating a subtle but striking contrast against the silver background.
The locket opens to reveal space for two keepsakes, though no glass panels are present. Its design combines Victorian elegance with botanical charm, making it both decorative and personal.
Fully hallmarked for Birmingham Assay Office, with date letter 'g', dating to 1881. The piece is in lovely condition, with all applied gold intact and the silver retaining fine detail.
A standout late Victorian locket, perfect for collectors or as a wearable statement piece.
