Truly rare Georgian rock crystal crowned heart locket pendant. This new arrival is exceptional. The rock crystal quartz is carved so soft and smooth with a gorgeous gold trim. The top carved amethyst, with a crown trim, has a red foil backing that flashes a deeper red and pink tones. This incredible antique approximately 1810 or earlier. For its age, this rock crystal is in great condition, with only very minor wear from its over 200 year lifespan. The gold tests 20k with the xray gun, but is likely between 15-18k buttery yellow gold. The heart section with a crown of this pendant measures approximately 46 x 40 x 15 mm.

It shares many similarities with a Tudor period locket that belonged to Mary, Queen of Scots. While not an exact twin, both feature crown details on the top, gold accents, and most importantly a heart-shaped chunk of rock crystal that opens to hold a memento.
