Heart pendant

Found at 1880 site at work on my break . Had to crawl under a lower branched tree to get this out but it was worth it. Costume jewelry I'm sure . Had a few caterpillars on me and bleeding alot from briars. I guess I'm dedicated and have my blinders on.

Nice! Looks old, maybe gilt or gold plated?

Cleaned it up, not sure what kind of stone that is if it's even real or not. Be cool if it was a garnet.

Guessing a child's locket.

Thank you, I was shocked. Didn't look like much of anything with packed dirt

Unfortunately seeing how scratched up the "stone" is I would say it's not a garnet, most likely glass, garnets are very hard and commonly don't scratch easily, quartz, sapphires and diamonds will easily scratch a garnet but not much else, garnets are used to make many types of sandpaper.

Glass... didn't think about that as a possibility. Makes sense though
