Victorian Pendant/Pin/Locket with gold wash over sterling silver with natural cultured pearl, garnets turquoise and amethyst

Description : The Austrian Hungarian states were co-equal in power after 1867. They were known for building machinery. The jewelry that was from this period shows an amalgam of the two influences. The use of turquoise and garnet is typical and the gold wash over silver is also a characteristic trait of pieces derived from this time. There is a center oval amethyst which is also hanging from the piece. This locket has it all. It can be worn as a pendant, has a loop for the chain and also has a pin back for wearing on a garment. One of the features of an Austro-Hungarian jewelry is the back is equally as interesting as the front, and is your personal secret. A lovely memento and a really special gift! The entire measurement is 80mm long x 40mm wide.
