A&Z Hayward I Sterling Silver Large Valentine Heart Locket

In great vintage condition, here is a beautiful sterling silver locket on a pretty sterling rope chain, by A&Z Hayward, Inc. The heart does have some light surface wear, visible in photos. The mechanism is in perfect working condition and the locket opens and closes with no issues. The A&Z stamp is pretty obscured, so in addition to trying to capture it, I have shown the stamp in the same necklace in a round shape, also in my closet, to confirm that it is an A&Z locket. Measurements shown in photos. No box.

These dates provide a timeframe for the necklace, for lack of manufacture date.
