French silver photo pin/Antique Mourning jewellery/Edwardian bereavement brooch/Hallmarked

This delicate French silver brooch dates to the Edwardian era, designed as a mourning keepsake to honor a loved one—a poignant tradition of its time. The hallmarked silver frame features fine flowers and leaves surrounding a photograph of a young boy in a sailor suit, fastening with a simple C clasp. At 2.6cm diameter, the piece shows its age gracefully and serves as a meaningful reminder of how communities have long held memory close.
