A very unusual Victorian pendant brooch.

It is a Mourning pieve and most likely contained hairwork or a hand painted portrait but now contains a melancholy hand tinted portrait of two children, probably siblings.

It has a sterling silver frame with lovely engraved scrolls around the edge and a solid silver back.

This can be worn as a brooch or a pendant, the current picture is landscape and it has been used as a brooch but the picture can easily be replaced.

It fastens with an old c type clasp and pin fastener, the pin is a replacement and it has a bend in it, it is made of brass and protrudes slightly from the brooch.

Marks and era:
Unmarked, tests as sterling silver, c1870s, Victorian era.

Condition:
Good used condition overall, surface wear commensurate with age and use, some marks to the picture itself, pin is a base metal replacement with a bend in it

Approx measurements:
(As a pendant)
