![]() Victorian Locket with Crane![]() Crane & Diamond |
A finely crafted Victorian locket adorned with a crane gingerly stepping between cattails in a marshy setting. The crane grasps an Old European-cut diamond in its beak. During the late Victorian era, Western jewelry makers were influenced by the nature-inspired woodblock prints and decorative arts of Japan and East Asia. This locket beautifully reflects this influence. Created in 14kt gold, circa 1890.
