Vintage Art Deco Gold Filled Oval Locket Necklace
A vintage gold-filled Art Deco era oval locket necklace. The front of the locket has a lovely subtle pattern with a center oval (that could potentially be engraved by your jeweler), striped details and wavy lines along the edges. The inside of the locket is marked Theda 1/20 12k GF shell (the outside layers of the locket are gold-filled and the inner portion is likely brass). It still has both of its metal frames inside as well as both of the plastic protective coverings. I believe it was likely made sometime around the 1930's. It comes on a new gold-filled chain that is finished with a gold-filled spring clasp and a brass hexagon loop.
The locket measures 1.25" long and .75" across. The chain is 18" long.
Condition: Some metal wear along the outside edges. A tiny indentation on the back along with some minor scuffing on the back. One scratch on the back towards the bottom of the hinge.
