Macro Mondays 'keepsake' theme.

 

This is one side of an open-faced gold locket, left to me by my mum, who in turn inherited it from her mother-in-law, my nana. The picture is a hand painted miniature of my nana (Frances Susan Maude Pye, née Clarke), and it dates from about 1920. The other side shows my grandad (Herbert Felix Pye), who sadly died before I was born.

 

The locket measures 1.25" in diameter.
