Antique Hand Painted Victorian Hand Four Leaf Clover Horseshoe Gold Filled Chain
Antique Hand Painted Victorian Hand with Four Leaf Clover & Horseshoe Gold Filled Pocket Watch Locket Necklace. A beautiful, One of a Kind, Up-cycled, Hand Painted, Gold Filled Mother of Pearl Pocket Watch Locket. The locket is created from an antique, gold filled, pocket watch case.
The pocket watch pendant has a hand painted design on MOP of a Victorian hand, holding four leaf clovers, under a horseshoe. The MOP has the natural luster in iridescent shades of pinks and greens. The painting is done by me in gouache, an ancient medium use to paint miniatures for hundreds of years. The painting has been sealed and the MOP disc has been affixed to the gold filled watch case and protected with glass watch crystal.
The locket is suspended from a spectacular antique gold filled chain accented with bar links. The front of this necklace has a double swag chain front with an antique etched horseshoe connector. The watch case measures 1 by 1-1/2 inches to the end of the bead drop in diameter, and the circular part of the chain measures 17-1/2 inches. The inside portion of the watch case is lined with abalone shell as well as the gold horseshoe connector. The hinged pocket watch case can be opened in the back to insert a keepsake or photo. Once you fill it you can easily snap it closed. This is a beautiful OOAK piece assembled with all antique components and in very good antique condition.
