Vintage Black Enamel Round Locket with Repoussé Gold‑Tone Floral Detail on Tinsel Chain
Vintage black enamel meets mid‑century repoussé work in a locket that feels warm, dimensional, and unmistakably 1960s–70s. The raised gold‑tone floral motif sits over a glossy black enamel field, framed by an engraved and repoussé border that gives the piece depth and presence. The interior holds its original photo frames without glass, which is correct for this construction era. The locket closes securely and opens smoothly, with clean hinge action and no warping.
The pendant is paired with a later 24" tinsel‑style gold‑tone chain from the 1970s–80s. Its fine sparkle and lightweight drape complement the locket’s ornate face without competing with it. Both pieces are unsigned and in very good vintage condition, with the enamel intact and the metalwork crisp.
This is a versatile mid‑century piece that wears beautifully on sweaters, dresses, and blouses, and it layers easily with other gold‑tone chains for a more modern look.
