Custom 14k Gold Victorian Mourning Locket and Heirloom Pearl Necklace

This is a bespoke, one-of-a-kind necklace that masterfully integrates antique and vintage components. The focal point is a genuine Victorian mourning locket dated 1857, crafted from 14k yellow gold with an oval silhouette. The face of the locket features high-contrast black enamel with a central draped ribbon motif bearing the gold inscription 'IN MEMORY OF'. The locket's edge is detailed with fine scalloped engraving and delicate gold scrolling. The pendant is suspended from a strand of approximately 7-8mm heirloom natural or cultured pearls from the early 1920s, showing a soft, creamy luster. These pearls are meticulously hand-knotted on black silk cord and separated by faceted, hand-cut black spinel spacer beads, which provide a contemporary rhythmic contrast and echo the black enamel of the locket. The piece is finished with a modern 14k yellow gold clasp. Regarding condition, the locket shows a gentle age-related patina and minor surface micro-scratches consistent with its 19th-century origin, but the enamel remains remarkably intact. The 1920s pearls appear well-preserved with minimal loss of nacre. This assembly represents a sophisticated 'reimagined' antique piece, combining the sentimental gravity of Victorian memento mori jewelry with the elegance of Art Deco-era pearls.
