ECLECTICA Vintage Estate Jewelry, pg 1

	Classic memorial locket is gold filled and suspended from a silk mourning necklace with a little gold filled slide ornament. Locket has the fancy initials MMF on the front and the back has not been monogrammed. There are some baby teething dings on the back as usually found. They add to the vintage charm but any jeweler could pound them out if you are so inclined. Inside, the locket is stamped with a letter P for the maker and will hold two photos, each about an inch in diameter. Both frames and one celluloid cover are present. There is a nice sturdy gold filled swivel and slide on the silk necklace. The slide is made to look like it has a stone but actually having one would have been garish on a mourning piece. The silk necklace is about 48 inches long and would have been worn doubled on the neck. See full view. Locket measures 1 1/4 inches wide. Easy on and off with swivel.
