This yellow-gold hexagonal-shaped locket has a large compartment, fitted with two rock crystal panels. As you will notice in the pictures, the compartment is a bit wider than the back of the pendant, so the inside is large enough to use fill with gemstones to create a 'shaker locket', or to add a different personal memento.
The front is studded with several natural seed pearls of different sizes. Unusual yet interestingly, the top features the three jump rings, the center one also studded with seed pearls, flanked by two other rings with faceted decorations.
