c1910s Antique 14k Yellow Gold Engraved Cross Locket Pendant
Regular price
$660.00
Presented is a lovely antique 14 karat yellow gold cross locket pendant. This piece dates to circa 1900-1920, and was made in America. The pendant is in the form of a cross, finely hand engraved on both sides with bright cut and pinstripe designs that catch the light beautifully. The design is different on both sides, so the cross is reversible. The cross opens to reveal a rectangular bezel, where you could place a lock of hair or some other very small memento.
The pendant has a round bail measuring about 5.4 millimeters interior diameter, so it will fit a wide variety of chain or cord styles and sizes.
This piece is in excellent condition. The engraving is nice and crisp and the hinge is working well. The cross snaps shut nicely.
This piece is not stamped or hallmarked, but we have tested it with nitric acid and guarantee it to be 14 karat gold.
This cross measures about 2 1/4 inches long including the bail, and measures about 1 7/8 by 1 1/4 inches.
The pendant weighs 7.7 grams.
