With the advent of photography, a whole new culture of jewelry suddenly emerged: for the first time, small portraits of loved ones were affordable for broad sections of society and could be carried with them at all times as a personal expression of attachment. Inside these new photo lockets, which were created around 1900, the pictures of loved ones, parents or children were protected from prying eyes, but at the same time present and always at hand. This locket from this period is made of silver and delights with its translucent enameling on a guilloché ground. A graceful bouquet of densely filled roses in a pretty wicker basket adorns the center, accompanied by small forget-me-not flowers. The reverse is translucent enameled in a single colour, allowing the guilloché pattern of concentric wave motifs to unfold its full effect. The locket radiates a cheerful, romantic mood. Perfect for storing photographs of your loved one in the two frames inside it throughout the summer. A graceful piece of jewelry that found its way to us here in Berlin, and in wonderful condition to boot.
