Antique Victorian English 16k Locket Memento or Mourning Brooch, Garnet Cabochon, c. 1850-70s mule "Ah Le Petit Gueux Faut-IlBeautifully preserved, a big garnet cabochon rising from the 16k mount and with what appears to be a 'never used' locket back for a plaiting or lock of hair. This one is simple to pry open to place your own memento. Full measurements noted on our photos. Very good to excellent condition for age and type, as noted in our photos, ready to become your own memento locket brooch. Looks like all I can report here is that I didn't do a very good job cleaning
