10s/Edwardian Antique Sterling Silver Engraved Heart Locket

I'm always on the lookout for antique lockets, but this one is especially unusual, and very special. It has an accordion opening, so it actually opens 3 different ways, with 2 separate compartments that can carry a special memento. The exterior on both sides is engraved with a chased scrollwork motif, with some small crosshatch engravings (these can read as scuff marks in pictures, but they are intentional/part of the design and create depth and texture). It is on a jump ring that can accomodate almost any chain; note that the chain is not included, but please contact me if you are interested in purchasing a chain. The heart measures 2 cm long x 18 mm wide (jump ring is about 5 mm diameter). Stamped 925 for Sterling Silver. (The toile dress pictured is also available in my shop.)

Great antique condition. Of the three hinged openings, one is slightly loose, and I've placed removable jewelry putty on the inside as extra insurance it remains closed, although it mostly stays closed without it as well. It could also be reinforced by a jeweler. With any questions about the specific condition or size, please email shop@verybreezy.com for additional photos or measurements.
