Edwardian lockets, produced during the reign of King Edward VII from 1901 to 1910, often featured delicate romantic motifs such as swallows, floral garlands, and flowing ribbons, reflecting a period of refined elegance and sentimental jewellery design.

These pieces were commonly crafted from 9-carat or 15-carat gold, frequently utilizing rose gold variations, and often incorporated intricate hand-engraving, chasing, and occasionally small gemstones or seed pearls.

Authentic pieces can be identified by hallmarks stamped on the metal indicating the assay office, metal purity such as 9ct, and a date letter, alongside traditional construction methods like hand-soldered bails and original interior framing.

An antique locket can be styled by suspending it from a contemporary heavy gold chain for a high-low textural contrast, or layering it with modern minimal necklaces to highlight its historical craftsmanship.

Preserve antique gold by storing it in a soft, dry lined box away from humidity, cleaning it gently with a soft microfibre cloth, and avoiding harsh chemical dips or ultrasonic cleaners that can damage delicate hinges and internal glass.
