Mizpah — from the Hebrew, meaning watchtower — was one of the most charged sentimental words in the Victorian lexicon. Taken from Genesis 31:49, \"The Lord watch between me and thee, when we are absent one from another,\" it was given between those who were parting — lovers, friends, family members separated by distance or circumstance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe forget-me-nots reinforce the message: remember me, do not forget. The roses add a note of love and beauty. Together the three elements — Mizpah, forget-me-nots, roses — make this one of the most emotionally loaded lockets a Victorian jeweller could produce.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe back carries further floral chasing with a blank shield cartouche — unengraved and ready for a monogram should the new owner wish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNo inserts or glass present.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEra: Victorian, c.1890\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHallmarks:\u003cbr\u003e\nUnmarked, tests as sterling silver.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDimensions:\u003cbr\u003e\nHeight 41mm\u003cbr\u003e\nHeight including bale 48mm\u003cbr\u003e\nWidth 29mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eWeight:\u003cbr\u003e\n17.6 grams\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"thenorthc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57136738107772,"sku":"CN1384","price":495.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0267\/3423\/1615\/files\/il_fullxfull.8223051389_5gu5.jpg?v=1783094610","url":"https:\/\/thenorthc.co.uk\/products\/antique-sterling-silver-mizpah-locket-forget-me-not-rose-chasing-victorian-cn1384","provider":"TheNorthC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
