Victorian 9ct Gold, Pinchbeck and Pearl Portrait Necklace
The antique, late Victorian era necklace consists of a 9ct yellow-to-rose gold portrait frame pendant on a Pinchbeck belcher chain.

The glass cover at the back is hinged. The pendant has a decorative fixed bale set with 6 seed pearls (approximately 1.5mm 2.5mm diameter). The pendant contains a miniature portrait of a lady (hand-coloured print) at the front, and a lock of hair at the back.
