Important info about antique jewellery:
Many items were made long before the Hallmarking Act came into force and though we have been hallmarking items in the UK since the 1300s this was not the norm until recently.  Many items were handmade by the "family jeweler" and never went off to be assayed.  Anything made pre 1920 does not need to be hallmarked by law.
All such items are electronically tested for purity (I do NOT use acid, I am not a complete idiot) and guaranteed to be as stated.  If you check the shop policies you will see that I offer a full no-quibble returns policy so you can be confident in your purchase.

9ct Bk & Ft is an old marking where other metals are used in addition to the gold.  In the case of lockets please remember that old items such as this did not have the alloying capabilities that they have today.  As gold is a soft metal it was not practical to make hinges etc. out of gold so usually they were steel or similar.  Almost all the locket is in fact gold but the hinge will not be, in this instance.
