Exotic locket

The turquoise pattern on this Victorian locket reminds me of a close up of some beautiful, tropical fish. Or an exotic lizard. I'm not really a turquoise person (I'll pass on the chunky sterling silver and turqoise jewelry) but I enjoy some antique pieces. Tiny little turquoise cabochons like these are pretty irresistible, especially with that wonderful range of color!
