Vintage 9ct Gold Back and Front Heart Locket

Vintage 9ct Gold Back and Front Heart Locket A charming vintage heart-shaped locket dating to the 1940s, engraved to the front with an attractive combination of geometric engine-turned decoration and a monogram. The reverse is stamped "9ct BACK & FRONT", indicating that both outer faces are of solid 9ct gold over a base-metal core — a typical construction for the period. The locket opens to reveal two inset photographic portraits under original covers, likely of a wartime or early post-war couple, adding to the personal history and period appeal. Dimensions: 2 x 2.5 x 1 cm Weight: 3.6 grams Good vintage condition with light wear consistent with age. Hinge and clasp are in working order. Minor surface marks but no dents or structural issues.
