The exact gold karat purity of the historic vermeil wash is unstamped (that I can see) and untested, selling completely untouched with its gorgeous, authentic 130-year-old copper-gold patina.

The interior frame panels feature breathtaking, untouched engine-turned guilloché detailing under a historic rose gold wash. Each frame features matching hand-etched jeweler bench assembly marks (3 notches), verifying its authentic, hand-fabricated 19th-century origin. The metal shows a stunning, deep copper-gold antique patina.

⚠️ Condition Disclosure & Care Notes
Material & Structure: This is an authentic, 19th-century sentimental piece crafted from finely woven antique braided hair.

Current Condition: Due to its significant age, there is some minor fraying present on a portion of the hairwork strand. The mechanical folding orb mechanism and hinges open smoothly, but they should always be handled with deliberate care.

Recommended Use: Because antique hairwork can become brittle over time, this piece is highly recommended primarily for display, collection, or archival purposes rather than daily structural wear.

Care Instructions: Keep this piece away from moisture, heavy humidity, direct sunlight, and oils. Handle gently with clean, dry hands.
