1850s Antique Mourning Jewelry Girl Holding Flowers & Man 2 Daguerreotype Photos zoo San FranciscoOriginal 1850s, double sided brooch, with a daguerreotype set in each side on a swiveling center post. The dag rotates completely around to display a different image, either the handsome young man or the young girl, who is holding a rose*. (* the previous owner insisted she was post mortem..
