An extraordinary antique 9ct Gold double sided swivel locket from the Victorian era, Circa 1880.

Carnelian has been worn throughout history as a symbol of leadership, providing the wearer with the courage needed in life.

Jasper is a stone grounded in nature with a wonderful rich speckled texture that comes in a variety of different earthy colours, from dark green to sandy brown.

The locket is fitted to a beautiful engraved 9ct Yellow Gold gallery which can be spun around and worn both ways.

Both sides of the locket open and close securely with room to add photographs within.
