Antique Silver Enamel Compact Locket with Roses and Mirror, Birmingham 1916

A delicate bouquet forever in bloom—this exquisite silver enamel compact locket captures the grace of Edwardian elegance in every detail. A medley of hand-painted pink rose blossoms against a pristine guilloché enamel background, their petals entwined in a symmetrical embrace, as if frozen in a moment of perfect harmony. More than a mere locket, this piece once held both beauty and function close to the heart.

Fully hallmarked in Birmingham in 1916, this silver treasure bears the anchor for the city’s assay office, the lion passant for sterling silver purity, and the date letter r for the year of its creation. The maker’s mark L&S completes its story of fine craftsmanship. Measuring 49 mm by 39.7 mm and 13.3 mm thick, with a weight of 14.9 grams, it opens to reveal a mirror inside—a rare reminder of its original purpose as a compact.

Both a keepsake and a time capsule of refinement, this locket whispers of elegance from another era, offering a charming way to carry memories—or perhaps a touch of vanity—into the present day.
