Heart of Gold💛
This vintage, gold filled locket is a classic. Suspended from a hand wired chain of sparkling pyrite, garnet, and pink tourmaline, it is detachable from the charm clasp.
Wells Manufacturing Company was founded by Raymond L. Wells in Attleboro, Massachusetts around 1923. The company was a prominent American jewelry producer known for sterling silver, enamel, and gold-filled items. Renowned for their "Seventy Two" series of charms in the 1950s/60s and high-quality craftsmanship, the firm operated until 1978.
The locket is hallmarked "Wells" on the interior for the right side of the locket, along with 1/20 12kgf to indicate it is 12k gold filled metal. Pre-loved, good vintage condition! There is slight wear on the front which is not noticeable with more wear to the back. Please note that the photo is an extreme close up and the wear is not as visible when viewing it from a normal distance.
The necklace measures 18" in length.
Your jewelry will be packaged in a gift pouch and box and will be shipped with tracking.
