Unusual Antique Horseshoe Brooch Locket

This unusual antique silver brooch features a gold toned lucky horseshoe and has a locket compartment at the back for a photo or special momento. These type of brooches were often called mourning brooches as the wearer could place a photo or lock of hair of a lost loved one in the compartment to keep them close. It has a C clasp and is in good antique condition.

Brooches are enjoying a revival and, most importantly, they are shedding their reputations as being reserved for women of a certain age. They have been a  staple since the Bronze Age, when they were used as a practical means for securing clothing and have become ever more versatile over time.  

It measures 3.8cm x 2.5cm.
