THE LINKS ALTERNATE WITH A RAISED REPOUSSE PATTERN & PLAIN SMOOTH LINKS. THE REPOUSSE LINKS ARE A YELLOW GOLD WITH THE PLAIN LINKS BEING WHITE GOLD OR STERLING SILVER. THE LOCKET IS A WHITE GOLD OR STERLING SILVER THAT'S GOT A TERRIFIC ETCHED OR ENGRAVED VICTORIAN FLORAL DESIGN. WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE PICS THE LOCKET DESIGN LOOKS LIKE A BIRD FACE. EYES AT EACH TOP CURVE OF THE HEART & THE BEAK COMING DOWN THE CENTER. MAYBE IT'S JUST ME---DON'T KNOW!! THE BAND HAS PLENTY OF STRETCH TO IT. THIS LOOKS TO BE BARELY WORN! I GAVE IT A VERY LIGHT POLISHING. LOCKET OPENS & CLOSES WITH EASE & IS QUITE SECURE. THE INNER PORTION OF THE BAND IS APPROX. 2" ACROSS & IT'S 5/8" WIDE.
