In French the word ’Souvenir’ translates to ‘Memory’.

This evocative locket hallmarked for Birmingham and date letter for 1876 is large in proportions at 4.3cm x 3.3cm and quite heavy at 19.29 grams.

Beautifully chased to the front with foliate design and emblazoned diagonally, in raised relief, with the French word for Memory. Plain to verso.

In remarkably good condition for its 145 years this lovely locket opens and closes perfectly, and retains one of its original oval rims inside.

Wonderful on either a fine chain or pop her on a fob or guard chain, quite a versatile and early piece or wearable history.
