All the Paris markets at your fingertips. With decades of contacts/partnerships in France and throughout Europe, we\'ve done all the hard work for you!
A petit and charming memento lock of hair, perfectly preserved in a frame with easel back which is unusual. Yes, it also has a hanging loop and the easel recesses so the backside is flat for your wall display, collection. Just 4\" x 3 3/8\" but deep at 1 1/8\", it\'s one you might want to display along with portrait miniatures and small artworks. Hair art was a French industry, and this one was done or sold through Lemonnier, 10 Bvd. Italiens, Paris, a little boutique in the Passages. A substantial lock, chestnut brunette with a few gray strands, so not a child but likely a young adult. So many young women died in childbirth, I tend to think of that with this one. So treasured. Very good to excellent condition throughout, age and type considered. Nicely preserved and nothing really floating. The outer frame is wood with a deep night sky blue silk velvet covering which has fared very well. A silver metal frame mat and deep convex cover glass, all in fine form. I\'d say this one is late 1800s.

As always, please also feel free to contact us if you have any problems or concerns, we\'ll do what we can to ensure a happy and mutually enjoyable transaction.
We always insure our items BUT, more importantly, pack them extremely well knowing that most are not replaceable. Again, damage in transit, while rare in our experience, is due to the postal agency handling and not caused by Antiques & Uncommon Treasure. Thanks!
Our shipping days are usually Monday and Friday though we do our best to ship within one to two days once paid. Otherwise, paid items will be shipped on the first shipping day after payment is received (except when special circumstances exist). We prefer to use USPS whenever possible, and require all packages to be insured. If you prefer another method of shipment, please mention it. We charge only actual expense of shipment/insurance, except in the case of larger items which must have special wood crates built. Wood crate charge, when applicable, is a flat $35.00 in addition to actual postage & insurance charges.
