Every so often, a piece appears that feels like it carries a season inside it. This French Art Nouveau locket is one of those treasures, its surface shaped in soft, organic curves and overlaid with a spray of holly leaves rendered in sculptural relief. The design winds across the front like a winter vignette caught in silver, elegant and slightly wild, as if borrowed from a frost-covered windowpane. It has an unmistakable turn-of-the-century magic; romantic, symbolic, and crafted with an artist’s hand.

Made around 1900 and silver plated over its oval form, this slide locket measures 71 mm north to south, 42 mm across, and 11 mm deep, and it weighs 25.6 grams. Inside, one side holds its original oval mirror, clouded slightly with age, but still charming; the opposite side retains its textured lining. There are no identifiable marks.

This is the kind of locket that invites secrets and stories. Wear it as a winter talisman, a keepsake for the season, or a little piece of Art Nouveau poetry resting against the heart.
