Vintage Antique ro Locket with old photo, old mourning jewelry locket

Vintage

A vintage locket in good vintage condition except it is missing one of the tiny little stones on the front.  A little metal wear on the sides and inside (see pics) but it’s hardly noticable to the naked eye.  Inside is an old photo (see below) and a mystery ingredient…might have been a four leaf clover?  This measures 1″ wide by 1 1/4″ tall.


 


This was owned by my great Aunt Hattie Kraunstauber (German enuf for ya?) who passed at the age of 80-ish in 1967 so I estimate the age of this approx. 1915 or so. Lived in Kirtland and Willoughby, Ohio all her life.   The picture is of her husband Robert Malchus, whom I never met. I know nothing else about him (I was too young & stupid to know enuf to ask questions and at the time she passed I was only 10 yrs. old! :-(( ).  I don’t know if it is a mourning locket or just something she was given when she first met him. Hattie was my grandfather Howard’s older sister.

@@@@ Hello Everyone! I’ve been a lover of Vintage Jewelry since I was a tiny girl and it’s nice to know I am not alone! :-)) . It’s been one of the major loves of my life. I have been collecting stashes for 25 years due to the fact that I make my living selling my upcycled handmade jewelry at art festivals and my customers are continually laying their awesome ‘unwanted’ jewelry on me….what a hardship! So keep checking back here and on Etsy as I am constantly listing some very cool, unusual items: the sweet pieces that are just too nice to tear apart and use in my creations. Have a lovely day and good luck in your treasure hunts! Lila
