It dates to the late 19th century and is decorated all over with an engraved floral design - as photographed.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne side has a cartouche - and this has a tiny (and hardly visible) inscription : JDS \/ to \/ MFM. This could easily be burnished off - but it is part of the history of the piece. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth sides are richly engraved - and the decoration on both sides is very different.  \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIt is a good quality item and in excellent \"as new\" condition. \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIt is sold all nice and clean with a fine shine to the silver - it certainly gleams. It is free from any disfiguring dents. \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe locket does not have a hallmark (Victorians did not always hallmark smaller pieces of silver) but it is definitely 925 silver in content.   \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe bale is large and allows you to easily put chains through the aperture. It has a very nice thick silver linked chain - and of a longer length. It will fit over your head if you have trouble with clasps on your jewellery. The chain is probably worth over £25 on its own!  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou can place photographs of your loved ones inside - as they would have done in Victorian days. \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe main locket section measures: 4 cm in height - and with a width of 3.2 cm. The length including the bale (or hanging ring) is 5 cm. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe chain measures 24 inches in total length. It has a ring catch closure.  \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Iconic Edinburgh","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39848867790912,"sku":"Sold for £85","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0271\/1902\/6240\/files\/large-solid-silver-oval-engraved-necklace-with-nice-thick-chain-opens-to-reveal-compartments-for-photographs-antique-locket-372.webp?v=1781472856","url":"https:\/\/www.iconicedinburgh.co.uk\/products\/large-vintage-silver-oval-engraved-necklace-photos-compartment","provider":"Iconic Edinburgh","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
