This stunning, fine and impressive antique locket has been crafted in 14ct rose gold with 14ct yellow gold decoration.

The anterior face of this hinged locket is embellished with a white guilloché enamel decoration.

The enamel background is ornamented with a 14ct yellow gold tied rope twist decoration

The tied rope decoration has two 'tassels', the lower border of each ornamented with a single Dutch cut diamond and a pear cut gemstone; one ruby and one sapphire, all collet set.

The 14ct rose gold posterior face is plain and unembellished, struck with the Russian hallmark for 14ct gold, or 56 zolotniks (56 female profile).

The locket is fitted to the original hinged blue velvet and satin lined push fit presentation case, bearing the retailer's name to the interior of the cover 'TIXIER, DESCHAMPS SUCS, 19et20 PALAIS ROYAL'.

This antique Russian locket is supplied with an independent diamond grading report card.
