Incredibly unique 14k gold and black onyx pendant with an open front locket to hold hair. It's a very unusual design and shape, and I have never seen another one like it!

Two little crescent moons top a starburst with a circular glass front locket in the center.

There is a woven mat behind the glass, but I don't think it is hair. It might be! But I can't confirm, and my best guess is that it is a woven silk mat for placing the hair onto.

Unmarked but tests as at least 14k solid gold.

Chain not included.

+++ Measurements +++

Approx 1 5/8" x 1 1/6" not including the bail.

+++ Condition +++

Lovely condition overall with some minor wear. Some of the onyx pieces appear to be chipped or perhaps repaired with black enamel. It's also possible there was some variation in these stones originally. This isn't noticeable except on close inspection under magnification.
