Photos cannot convey the stunning quality and workmanship that went into making this later Victorian locket. Modeled in the shape of satchel, the moveable strap functions as the clasp. It operates almost seamlessly thanks to three separate hinges - so smooth. Inside there is a single locket compartment which currently holds a photograph but has enough depth to hold a small memento.
