Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

During the Victorian period, heart-shaped jewellery set with turquoise symbolised true love and forget-me-not affection. Turquoise was frequently featured in sentimental memento jewellery to represent constancy and devotion.

Victorian turquoise lockets were typically crafted from high-carat gold, such as 15ct, featuring hand-set cabochon stones in a pave arrangement. The reverse often included a glass compartment designed to hold a miniature photograph or keepsake.

Authentic Victorian pieces often feature hallmarks indicating gold purity, such as 15ct (used in the UK until 1932), alongside hand-engraved details and characteristic natural variations in the turquoise cabochons.

While intended as personal adornment, antique lockets can be displayed inside velvet-lined glass shadow boxes, placed on a vanity tray, or framed alongside historical portraiture to add character to modern dressing areas.

Turquoise is a porous gemstone sensitive to liquids, chemicals, and heat, so it should never be submerged in water or cleaned with harsh chemicals. Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth and store in a moisture-free environment away from direct sunlight.
