This exceptional Victorian-era 14K gold folding locket is a beautiful expression of 19th-century craftsmanship and sentiment. The front is adorned with a finely executed taille d’épargne black enamel Celtic knot, set against a delicately stippled gold ground, while the reverse is richly decorated with complementary engraving.
Opening like a book, the locket features a clever side clasp and an interior divided into elegant “pages,” designed to hold up to six photographs or keepsakes. Each page is finished with engraved corners and glass-covered inserts, offering both refinement and protection for treasured mementos.
The contrast of deep black enamel and warm gold highlights the precision of Victorian enameling techniques, while the intricate folding construction speaks to the era’s extraordinary attention to detail. Rare, meaningful, and beautifully preserved, this locket is a timeless heirloom—created to safeguard memories and be cherished for generations.
