Our Victorian locket is oval in shape and it is set in silver. The locket has two areas where pictures can be stored. This classic piece hangs from a new heavy silver chain.
The Locket is perhaps the most mysterious and alluring pieces of jewellery. Only the wearer knows what secrets lie within the locket. It has to be the ultimate love token. During the Victorian era, young Victorian women would hide a picture of a man they admired, if the man offered up a lock of hair a marriage proposal usually would follow. Lockets were considered a statement of an intention to marry.
