Antique Diamond Star Locket of 10k Gold
Elegant and evocative, this antique 10k gold locket (circa 1890–1910) beautifully captures the romance and sentimentality of the Victorian-to-Edwardian transition. The front is adorned with a delicate diamond-set star, flanked by two rows of finely detailed floral accents in warm hues of rose, green, and yellow gold—a hallmark of the period’s love for multicolor goldwork. The reverse side is engraved with the initials HT (or TH) in a flowing script, offering a glimpse into the locket’s storied past. Inside, a sepia-toned photograph of a well-dressed Victorian woman remains lovingly tucked away, preserving a personal moment from more than a century ago. Measuring approximately 1.2 inches from the top of the bail to the base and 0.8 inches wide when closed, the locket is the perfect size to wear as a standalone keepsake or layered with other antique charms. It is in very good antique condition, with the floral details and engraved surfaces still crisp and the hinge functioning smoothly.
