Wonderful Georgian Key To My Heart Padlock.
 
These are getting so hard to find now!
A high carat gold locket back pendant, formed as a padlock, the border set with natural pearls, all in excellent condition and well matched.
The centre is set with a beautiful dendritic agate, above which is the padlock ‘shackle’, which is set with small natural pearls.
Hanging from the shackle either side on micro chain are:
a tiny gold heart,
+ a tiny gold key.
'You have the key to my heart'
 
The back has an opening where there was once a glass panel but now instead the light flows through the agate, illuminating it.
 
Hanging from a 10mm diameter gold ring.
