The chain looks to be rose gold and I believe you can determine its color in the photos.  It measures 10" end to end and is in superb condition.  The locket fob, which I believe to be gold, contains the picture of a young woman.  The case is engraved with initials on the back.  The front contains 5 dark purple amethyst stones in gypsy settings.  One of the stones is missing; I have no reason to believe they are no genuine.  The center stone looks to have been replaced with an "opal-looking" stone - the back of it is flat whereas the amethyst stones are pointed on the backs.  I am not too familiar with this type of item but if you have questions, please be sure to email me.  Hopefully the pictures will show the true beauty of these pieces.  Buyer pays $5 US shipping plus insurance.  Foreign shoppers please contact me prior to bidding re: shipping costs, etc. Sold as is, as found - I have described the items to the best of my ability.
