Description
A gorgeous 14 ct gold 'memento mori' mourning brooch, dating from the late Georgian period. The shaped frame is set with a halo of split pearls and there is a central rectangular panel containing the lock of hair, secured under bevelled glass. To the reverse the pin is secured by a 'c' clasp and although unmarked, the brooch tests positive for 14ct gold. A superb antique piece of social history and a lovely collector's piece.
