Victorian Niello Watch Fob with Locket Antiquaria

She wore it on a chain around her neck, a gift from her father. She remembered how when she was young, he would hang this charm from the chain of his pocket watch, always checking the time, never wanting to be late, but not too early either. He would tuck it into the breast pocket of his jacket for close keeping, making sure to never stick a pen in there for fear of it exploding over his precious trinkets. He was the gentlemanly type, opening the door for his wife, sharing his umbrella with strangers, lending his suit jacket to her when she was cold.

This antique Victorian niello locket fob was handcrafted in England around 1880. The round locket opens to reveal two frames inside, both lined in blue. This amazing watch fob measures 158.4 x 24.6 mm. It was made in silver and niello and has been acid tested. This locket fob measures six inches in length and weighs 31.9 grams.

This locket fob is to be worn like a gentleman on a watch chain, or don it like a lady on a chain around the neck like a lariat.
