About the Item
This is a Museum Quality Antique Edwardian Locket Necklace from the estate of Ambassador Evan Galbraith. The magnificent locket (one of two matching lockets from the estate) has exquisite robin's egg blue guilloche enamel with a white enamel target surround. In the center of the locket is an exquisite design in Platinum set with Rose Cut Diamonds. The trefoil design has milgrain beaded borders in platinum which is set with exquisite rose cut diamonds. The reverse of the locket has the same gorgeous guilloche enamel with white surround. The locket is 14 Karat Gold and is a disc form locket of the highest quality.
