FAQs

Lockets became immensely popular during the Victorian era as personal sentimental keepsakes used to store photos, portraits, or locks of hair. Design motifs often incorporated symbolic engravings, secret fraternal emblems, or intricate floral patterns characteristic of 19th-century metalwork.

The term back and front refers to a manufacturing technique where thin sheets of solid karat gold (often 9ct) were bonded to the front and back exterior surfaces of a base metal frame. This produced durable, highly detailed jewellery that offered the appearance and tarnish resistance of solid gold while maintaining structural strength.

Authentic Victorian lockets often exhibit hand-engraved scrollwork, crisp geometric or floral chasing, and characteristic rim construction. Look for period hallmarks or makers stamps inside the rim, along with signs of light, natural wear along the hinge and catch.

Antique lockets are frequently layered with contemporary gold chains of varying lengths and textures to create a personalized necklace stack. Pairing an engraved period pendant with clean, modern necklines allows the historic craftsmanship to serve as a focal point.

Clean the exterior gently using a soft, lint-free jewellery cloth without harsh chemical dip cleaners. Ensure moisture does not enter the internal photo compartments, and store the locket in a dry, fabric-lined box away from direct sunlight.
