FAQs

Victorian lockets were popular sentimental jewellery pieces worn to hold portraits, photographs, or mementos. Crafted during the nineteenth century, these items frequently featured intricate hand engraving, foliate motifs, and detailed scrollwork reflecting romantic customs.

Traditional Victorian lockets were constructed from sterling silver or coin silver, often featuring hand-engraved or engine-turned decorations. They incorporate hinged opening mechanisms, internal metal or celluloid rims to secure pictures, and substantial decorative bails.

Authentic pieces typically feature British hallmarks or makers marks indicating silver purity, assay office symbols, and date letters. Examination of hand-engraved details, natural surface oxidisation, and period-appropriate hinge construction helps distinguish genuine items from modern reproductions.

An antique silver locket can be styled as a personal accessory layered over modern tailored garments, or displayed decoratively within a velvet-lined trinket box or glass shadow box on a dressing table.

Clean sterling silver lockets gently using a soft, lint-free silver polishing cloth. Avoid submerging the locket in chemical liquid cleaners or water, which can damage the internal photo compartments and accelerate tarnish inside the hinge mechanism.
