Antique Victorian blue guilloche enamel and gold plated mourning brooch or pendant with enclosed lace, paired with gold plated chain

Antique Victorian mourning brooch (which can also be used as a pendant) with stunning bright blue guilloche enamel and fancy gold plated scroll work. The centre of the brooch is a glass cover for a small locket section that was traditionally used to preserve an artefact - often a mourning piece with, for example, woven hair. This example has a small piece of hand-made lace, which is charming.

This brooch/pendant is paired here with a more recent gold plated fancy chain. The chain has a length of 18 inches with a secure spring ring clasp. The pendant and the chain were not produced at the same time but have been paired together recently so that the pendant can be seen in full use. Message me if you would prefer to purchase the brooch/pendant alone.

The brooch/pendant is about 2.5 inches long and about 2 1/4 inches wide. It fastens with a simple antique  'C' hook and pin and is in very good vintage condition.
