Antique 9ct Gold & Enamel Double Sided Souvenir Memento Mori Locket
An antique Victorian locket with a scroll and foliate design to one side, and laurel wreath, belt and ‘Souvenir’ to the other.
The interior has a glazed panel in one side containing intricately woven hair in two different colours.
Crafted in rich yellow 9ct gold and deepest blue-black enamel.
Why we love it
‘Souvenir’ is French for a remembrance or memory. This, in combination with the gold and black colourway, and the woven hair, indicates that this beautiful locket is a memento mori piece for a cherished loved one.
