which snaps closed at front

and to my eye just exactly the right sort of bowl to have live on the kitchen--ideally one with warmly worn butcher block countertops and warm afternoon sunlight

There is a bit of writing on the plastic over the interior flaps of the cover as documented

and could certainly be put to use once again

He also seems as if he is likely a make do creation

C. 1860s Mourning Pendant with Daguerreotype Portrait of Young Man in Folding Case color-aid which snaps closed at front(first image shows both front and back of pendant) I'm not at all an expert on early photography, but I look a lot, and follow my eye, and am learning along the way. I do know it is not very often I come across mourning pendants lockets, which is what this is, with dag portrait of a young man on one side and a glass windowed niche on the flip side for holding a lock of hair. The hair locket on this one was never filled or at least holds nothing now
