A truly phenomenal piece of statement jewelry!

You will fall in love with this gorgeous one of a kind keepsake locket necklace!

This incredibly fascinating piece is made from a antique circa 1880 Sterling Silver Swiss made pocket watch case, with original beveled glass crystal.

Rarely do you have the opportunity to own a 130+ year old magnificently handmade piece such as this one and I was thrilled to come across this case.

Repurposing this stunning and exquisitely hand engraved case was an absolute joy.

The back of the watch is beautifully hand engraved with a lovely leaf motif and french moire pattern surrounding a shield, perfect for monogramming.

The pocket watch case is embellished with a highly detailed antiqued Sterling Silver over brass Heart charm. Also within the case is a faceted 2.0 carat oval shaped blue aquamarine Swarovski crystal stone and a variety of vintage circa (1870 to 1950) watch cogs, gears and wheels made of brass and steel.

The case itself is in good condition for its age, it has a few blemishes, dings and dents here and there, which just adds to its old world charm. The hand engraving is intact and in great condition, which is uncommon for a precious metal watch case that is over 130+ years old.

Sterling Silver pocket watch cases are becoming increasingly rare and are incredibly hard to come by in good shape. Typically many of these beautiful watches are fated to be melted down for precious metal value.

The pocket watch case suspends from a Victorian styled bail, that I’ve fashioned from a piece of sterling silver over brass filigree.

A soldered silver rope chain with lobster clasp completes the necklace.

The watch case measures: 1-3/4 inches in diameter and the watch case & pendant bail is 2-3/4 inches tall.

The length of necklace/chain is: 24-inches long.
