Victorian 1882 Rectangular Silver Locket With Birmingham Hallmarks

Victorian English Silver Locket in an unusual rectangular shape.
Interesting design at the front with fans, a buttercup flower and its stem. That design may remind us of an Asian-English Art fusion.

Details:
The locket has multiple stamps, inside and outside. The lion passant, UK hallmark for sterling silver. The anchor of Birmingham Assay and the h year letter of 1882.
It opens from the right side, and shuts tightly. It is in very good condition given its age, the engravings are crisp. A number of dents at the back, please see photos.

This listing is for the locket only without a chain.
