Miniature Portraits have been a common piece of sentimental jewelry for centuries. You see them during the Tudor Era through the Victorian period.  Like our modern-day lockets, they were a way to keep a portrait of a loved-one or someone you admire close. 

These historical miniatures feature portraits of well-know figures in history.  They measure 35mm and are available in Silver plate, Gold plate, or Antique Gold plate.  They are finished with either a simple decorative edge or a more elaborate crystal halo. 

This portrait features Queen Charlotte (wife of King George III).  This is a later portrait of her dating to 1789. 

This item is a pendant ONLY and does not come with a chain or ribbon, however those can be added on here:
