Very attractive Victorian Padlock. Elongated, with a scrolling, organic outline, this padlock has at it's centre a big jammy red stone which pretends to be a garnet, but is foiled paste, and is quite mesmerising. The gold coloured metal is chased all over, front and back, with a foliate pattern. The back also has an oval glass locket window, once lined with hair, now with purple silk. However, what I love the most is that the side of the locket all the way around has been engraved with the inscription, 'Wm D F Stocks Died April 6th 1857 aet 33' weighs - 13.2g measures - 45mm x 25mm England circa 1857 condition - good antique condition - few small scuff to the back glass Locket opens and closes well and is secure
