Antique gold filled slide locket. What a unique piece! Circular in shape, this pendant slides open to reveal a triangular shape section. The front is incredibly ornate with a textured background with a leaf design on top and a beaded edge. Sets of green gold leafs and a single rose gold flower accent the front. The contrast is incredible making this a truly standout piece. The back of this locket is unadorned, smooth and tactile, with just a matching beaded edge.

The fixed top has a simple swirl design and the bail is a spring bolt clasp. It opens with a little hidden slide and is a good sized bail to allow for a wide chain. Circa late 19th century.

In very good condition. The centre section would have held a couple of plastic protectors for photographs at some point. They are lost to time.
