Beautiful antique-style Art Nouveau photo locket pendant crafted in solid 925 sterling silver, likely dating to the early 20th century, circa 1900–1920.
This charming and delicate piece features an exquisitely detailed floral and botanical design, beautifully reflecting the flowing, organic lines associated with the Art Nouveau period.
The upper section is adorned with an elegant blooming flower, its delicately sculpted petals surrounding what appears to be a small feminine figure. Graceful branches and finely detailed leaves curve around the oval frame, creating a romantic and beautifully balanced composition.
The intricate silverwork gives this small pendant a wonderful sense of movement and character.
A Beautiful Antique Photo Keepsake Locket
This lovely pendant was designed to hold a treasured miniature photograph or personal keepsake.
It retains its removable glass cover and original-style bone backing.
The bone backing can be carefully removed to insert a small photograph behind the glass, then replaced to securely hold the photograph in position.
A wonderful example of the sentimental jewelry tradition, when miniature portraits and personal mementos were worn close to the heart.
The silver setting is marked 925 on the reverse.
