Old locket

[mick56]

I picked up this locket at a garage sale last summer. Wondering hold old it may be. I think it might be white metal. Can't really tell if the photos were put in it, or if they were stock photos from when the locket was bought.

Take a magnifying glass and look at the photos. If you see they are made up of little tiny dots, then it is a print, not a photograph. Breezie

That appears to be an exact match that sold on eBay. Is this the same locket or not?

ADDED: The eBay ad says photos. I see some slight differences in the mounting and the eBay seller is in Florida so it must be the original stock prints when sold. You can also see Breezies dots. Not photographs. Good catch Deftone.

I say solved green check.

The locket on eBay looks identical to the one I have, but it is not the same one. Same photos in it, have to be the stock photos. I did not think the locket was that old. Could the locket be pewter? Thanks for all the help!

The moire pattern in the pictures looks like newspaper print - I'm a graphic designer and have to work around that all of the time.
