Victorian garnet cabochon set pendant with locket back. A large oval shape garnet is bezel set to the front. Engraved around the edges is a repeating circle or swirl design. Each of the little swirls is hand engraving giving the pattern a bit of added interest. Set into the back, under bevelled edge glass, is a looped lock of dark brown hair. The hair has been tied with a little gold thread. The detail on the front is just lovely and the back, with the hair compartment against the body of the wearer close to the heart, is super sweet. This memorial piece is circa late 1800s.

Small hairline split near the glass, near the bail.
