Description: Victorian mourning jewelry was popular during the late 1800s and was used as a tribute or memento to remind the wearer about their love for the person they had lost. Death was a regular occurrence in Victorian times, thanks to pervasive diseases like cholera and scarlet fever. For this reason, the loss of a loved one was not a shocking event, but a sad part of everyday life. Obviously this photo is of someone's beloved infant. Pin is 1.5" Very good condition except the plastic cover of the photo is cracked. Please check out the photos. The pin and prongs on back are in very good condition. This pin is dated on the back May 31, 86 that makes it 137 years old !
