Overview:
Finely detailed vintage Tiffany & Co diamond & ruby locket, crafted in 18 karat white gold (circa 1930s to 1940s).
One estimated 0.07 carat round brilliant cut diamond (estimated at H-I color VS2 clarity). Six estimated 0.03 carat rubies total an estimated 0.18 carats. The rubies are in very good condition and free of cracks or chips. The beautifully crafted vintage Tiffany & Co locket opens to reveal one movable page and a total of 4 areas to add an engraving, a picture or a keepsake. The piece is a great example of earlier Tiffany & Co jewelry with lovely sentimental value as well. A 14k gold spring ring (not Tiffany & a later addition to the piece) allows the locket to be worn on a necklace or a charm bracelet if desired.
The locket is in very good original condition and was recently lightly cleaned and polished.
