Antique silver shaker locket surmounted with a bow and surrounded sparkling paste stones

This antique locket is absolutely stunning. The paste stones sparkle beautifully in the light. Personally I think these look fantastic on a velvet ribbon but it would be lovely on a chain too. I have had some tiny dried flowers in it but it would be equally lovely with gemstones, photographs or a lock of hair. It's a great size. It is stamped 900 indicating the percentage of silver and will have been made in continental Europe around the end of the Victorian era, around 1900. It is a really romantic feminine piece. 

Please look closely at the photographs as they form part of the description. If you have any questions please ask. The box is not included, but if you'd like to buy one please get in touch as I do have a couple I can make available. I also have some small marquise rubies that would look lovely in it if you are interested.
