The locket closes with a soft click, as if it remembers every secret it’s ever kept. Its engraved front gleams with alternating straight and wavy lines, framed by a border that catches the light in warm flashes of old gold. Above, a delicate scrollwork top adds just the right touch of Edwardian grace, feminine, with quiet strength. Inside, it still holds a sepia photograph of a smiling woman from another century, her gaze unguarded, her story untold.

Handcrafted in England around 1900, this locket is made of 9 karat gold and marked “9CT” along with “BACK & FRONT”. It measures 30.6 mm north to south including the bale, 20.8 mm across, and 4.4 mm thick, weighing 3.64 grams. The chain shown is not included and is for display purposes only.

Perhaps it once held the portrait of a sweetheart, or a child’s first lock of hair; whatever its story, it’s ready to hold the next one close to your heart.
