Description: To make this a smooth and pleasant transaction experience for everyone, all buyers need to read and understand the Description, Terms of Sale, Payment, and Shipping, below. This fabulous antique necklace features a scarce Art Nouveau locket depicting a lady blowing bubbles. The "bubbles" are shown as clear rhinestones. The locket, which has a matte gold finish, opens downward and reveals two photo compartments complete with photo frames and celluloid covers. By Wightman & Hough Co., established in 1856 in Providence, Rhode Island, it is signed "W & H CO." inside a heart. The back is engraved with a fancy monogram. The locket hangs from an Albert swivel clasp, signed "H.F.B." that is attached to an extra-long chain with slide. The pretty Victorian slide is engraved and accented with a red stone and a seed pearl. Condition: Very good--near the edge of the back left side is a surface scuff measuring about 5/8" long, which I tried to photograph but is hard to see in the photo, locket closes with a snap Approximate measurements: Chain--50" around when slide is all the way down, slide--5/16" by over 3/8", locket--1 1/8" diameter Shipping includes insurance. ****************************************Payment:Payment expected within two days of purchase.Shipping:Please be sure your shipping address on file with eBay is correct.
