Victorian Etruscan Revival Turquoise Locket chains It's modelled as a birdDATE: Victorian, c. 1870 An outstanding mid Victorian round locket with more than a hint of the Etruscan Revival in its design. It dates from the 1870s, featuring a highly domed pav turquoise centre and applied rope goldwork around the border as well as a further eight turquoise cabochons. The back features a glass locket compartment, and it's crafted in 15 karat gold throughout. Somehow has a vaguely nautical look to it with all the ropework,
