Gold Mizpah Locket with Photos

A lovely antique Victorian locket with a hand painted floral design with Mizpah painted across the locket. The back is hand engraved beautifully  with a floral design. 

“Usually found on antique design keepsake jewellery, mizpah is a Hebrew word that means 'watchtower' and is loosely interpreted as 'May God watch over you. ... Mizpah jewelry is still worn as a token of love or friendship and became popular during the Victorian era with an emotive story behind it”
