Description
This beautiful Antique Victorian heart-shaped locket has been modelled back and front in 9ct Yellow Gold and features wonderful engravings of forget me not flowers and flowing foliate style designs on both sides. The front also boasts the shape of a shield which could further be engraved.
Forget me nots in an old German tale were discovered by two lovers walking by a river one day. After picking a beautiful bouquet of blue flowers for his loved one the poor gentleman sadly fell in the river and was swept away but before he vanished he yelled out Forget-me-not! giving the flowers their name and a long lasting symbolism of love and remembrance.
A stunning locket which features two internal sections both complete with gold rims to house photographs of loved ones.
