The second Albertina bracelet, Locks and Keys, has a double chain linked with filigree stations, and again the fob is hooked through a ring at the base of the chain attached to the button bar. The locks and keys are mostly antique with some vintage. Several of the keys can still open the locks.

Starting with the red enamel lock, that opens with a spring ring, a gold watch key with number 5 on one side (my favorite number) and a flower on the other, a vintage lock with latch on side, a vintage key that says U & Me, a floral lock by the famous designer Walter Lampl, a vintage lock and key attached on a chain, a ring of vintage keys that spell my name, SUSAN, and 3 heart keys, an antique key and lock on a filigree station, a vintage floral enamel Walter Lampl lock engraved, Walford, an antique padlock, probably late 1800’s engraved ET to GT, an antique lock engraved BF, a vintage key and tag (If found, return to), a little skeleton key and a Walter Lampl spring padlock.
