Gold secret photo holder locket “Solis”

Imposing 19th century photo locket in 18-carat gold with a rectangular shape reminiscent of a grimoire book. Its two sides are framed by a delicate chiseling at the heart of which is a lattice motif. Like the remnants of an almost forgotten past, the lines of these motifs are made of partially erased enamel, witnesses of the passage of time. A piece that is both heavy and imposing but also refined and delicate. To be kept close to your heart and preserve the memory of what is dearest to you.
