FAQs

A Victorian rock crystal puffy heart locket is a sentimental piece of jewellery featuring convex or cabochon-cut quartz crystals set into a hollow, three-dimensional heart-shaped metal frame, frequently used to enclose mementos such as hair or dried flowers.

These lockets are traditionally crafted from natural quartz known as rock crystal, paired with precious metals such as 9-carat or 15-carat gold, and often feature soldered hinges and bezels.

Authentic pieces generally exhibit hand-cut natural rock crystal with minor inclusions, traditional hallmarking or metal purity stamps on the bale, and period-appropriate hinge and clasp construction.

An antique pendant can be suspended from a contemporary gold chain for daily wear or layered with other vintage necklaces to create a personalised, textured aesthetic.

Clean rock crystal gently with warm soapy water and a soft brush, avoiding harsh chemical dips or ultrasonic cleaners that might compromise the internal contents or historic metal settings.
