Beautiful, statement, Art Nouveau locket with a matte yellow gold finish.
The locket features a Moon crescent at the front facet, onto which a flower in repoussé is sitting. The swirly movement of the stem, leaves and petals of the flower are typical of the Art Nouveau era.
At the back a beautiful monogram is hand-engraved, with the three letters CEH.
The bale is new and made of solid 18k gold.
