A beautifully personal piece of jewellery with a story already begun.
This vintage 9ct gold oval locket dates to 1978 and still holds its original photographs tucked inside — a quiet little time capsule from nearly fifty years ago. The front is decorated with elegant hand engraving in a sweeping floral motif that catches the light beautifully and gives the piece a soft, romantic feel.
Inside are two original portrait photographs, adding charm and character. Whether left as found, replaced with your own treasured images, or simply appreciated as a glimpse into another life, it feels wonderfully sentimental.
Its petite scale makes it especially easy to wear layered or on a finer chain. Chain shown for display only and is not included. See link below for chain options.
