Vintage 14ct Yellow Gold Sapphire & Seed Pearl Oval Locket

Product Code: 007-02553
USD

Steeped in sentiment and rich with Victorian symbolism, this Vintage 14ct Yellow Gold Sapphire & Seed Pearl Oval Locket dates to the early 1900s and captures the romance of a bygone era. Its generous oval form offers a pleasing weight and presence on the décolletage, while the warm glow of 14ct yellow gold has softened over time into a mellow patina that speaks to its history.

The front of the locket is adorned with a graceful arrangement of sapphires and seed pearls, a classic Victorian pairing that balances deep blue with soft, luminous lustre. Delicate engraving flows around the gem‑set centre, creating a frame of scrolling detail that draws the eye inward and gives the piece an air of quiet opulence. Turn the locket over and you’ll find a finely worked buckle motif – a much‑loved symbol in Victorian jewellery, traditionally representing connection, loyalty and bonds that cannot be broken.

Hinged to open, the locket reveals space within to hold a cherished photograph or memento, keeping loved ones literally close to the heart. Worn on its own as a statement of vintage elegance or layered among modern pieces, this century‑old treasure carries with it the stories of the past while inviting you to add your own.

Pendant Dimensions: 33mm x 27mm

Romance of the Past

Vintage

For centuries, jewellery has been an important part of human cultures - a symbol of prestige, a means of spiritual protection, and a reflection of the mood and values of the time.  Each era speaks of the political and social climate it is a part of, an aesthetic and meaning which is a small slice of the bigger picture, captured in every unique piece.

Walker & Hall’s Vintage Collection is a considered curation of only the finest examples from each time, providing rare and remarkable illustrations of our human history.
