The design of this antique locket from Victorian England seems to have been inspired by the famous lullaby "Twinkle, twinkle, little star". The song by London lyricist Jane Taylor has become commonplace in the English-speaking world. She wrote the song back in 1806: Twinkle, twinkle, little star, How I wonder what you are! Up above the world so high, Like a diamond in the sky. The oval pendant made of solid yellow gold features an attached star made of shiny polished gold on its otherwise unadorned and matt surface. A wonderful old European cut diamond of around a quarter of a carat glitters in its center. The locket also has an additional, velvety fine gold plating, which gives the locket a particularly beautiful shimmer. The locket came to us from London. It has a particularly fine finish and sits beautifully in the hand. Two compartments inside allow you to store two pictures or other mementos.
