An exceptional and highly collectible piece of mid-Victorian Memento Mori jewelry, dating circa 1861–1875. This double-sided swivel (spinner) brooch is a poignant artifact of social history, perfectly capturing the mourning customs of the American Civil War era.Mechanically sound and incredibly well-preserved, the central oval locket rotates smoothly on its pivot points, allowing the piece to be worn showing either the original photographic portrait or the sentimental hairwork memorial. This is a pre-owned antique item. Please review all photos carefully to assess condition, including any wear commensurate with age, such as light rubbing to the metal or any marks on the glass. No Returns.
