Following the construction of the Biarritz salt baths, the city experienced a great boom in the years 1900-1920 thanks to the international tourism that developed there. Coco Chanel opened her 3rd boutique there in 1915.

270,00€Victorian French locket pendant in silver plated. An enamelled ceramic plate adorns the center of the pendant. It represents a woman in traditional regional costume, with her head bowed and her hands crossed, in front of the village church. Her traditional costume let us think that the woman is from Alsace, East of France, because of the large black bow which was worn here at this period.
Red glass stones surround the figure in a set of filigree. At the back, the locket opens to hide a lock of hair or a photograph of the loved one.
Height: 4.3 cm
Width: 3.1 cm
