An adorable Victorian locket with a wonderful painting of an Old English Bulldog!

The dog, wearing a chunky collar, has a gorgeous expression on his face! The detail is fantastic, and you can even see the brush strokes.

The background of the painting has pretty shades of blue to lilac.

The locket itself is 9ct gold front and back, with a lovely foliate chasing design on the reverse.

The locket opens to reveal two glass panels with the original frames. These are lined with the original turquoise silk.

Perfect to add your own personal picture or to leave empty to show the pretty silk colour.

This was most likely a sentimental piece commissioned by a Victorian who really loved their dog!

MATERIALS

9ct gold front and back

The term ‘front & back’ refers to a locket which is constructed with a layer of 9ct gold on both the front and back, with a non-gold metal sandwiched in between. Usually the inside rim, the hinge and the removable frame are made from a gold plated metal.

CONDITION

Excellent - there is a small area of damage to the enamel edge by the dog’s neck and top left edge. See pictures. But otherwise in fantastic condition!

Bracelets & Bangles:

How your bracelet fits is a personal preference.
To check your preferred size, wrap a tape measure loosely around your wrist to the tightness you would like your bracelet to fit.
From the end of the tape measure to the point where it crosses the tape is your desired bracelet length.
Please compare this to the measurements specified on each of our bracelet product pages.
Note, some bracelets are adjustable – this will be mentioned in the description.
Note, if a bangle does not have an opening, you must select one that will pass over your fist.
 
 

Necklaces

All The Old Cut chains and necklaces have the total length detailed in the description.
The measurement will be in cm and inches.
We recommend you place a tape around your neck to see where the chain will sit.
Below is a basic guide to show some popular lengths – note, everyone’s neck is different, so this is just a basic guide.
