This locket is a product of the Victorian Era’s Aesthetic Movement, a period known (in part) for its whimsical designs and minimalist renderings of Far Eastern nature scenes. Fashioned in silver, the locket features a tranche de vie depicting a bird and butterfly in rose and green gold on one side and a beautifully rendered robin on the other. The locket has retained its original lenses and inserts and hangs from a new 18" sterling silver chain.
