Antique Victorian rolled gold glass locket. This pendant is very unusual, glass lockets are not common to find. Rolled gold is a thin layer of gold on a base metal and fused together by heating. The pendant hangs from a new 9ct rose gold chain.
The bale of the locket unscrews, loosening the glass panes allowing you to place a picture, lock of hair or a thin momento would be able to fit into this locket.
