FAQs

Edwardian lockets from the early twentieth century frequently feature delicate garland, bow, and ribbon motifs executed in silver, platinum, or gold. They often incorporate paste stones or diamonds set around a central photo frame or glass compartment.

Craftsmen typically used sterling silver or platinum settings, occasionally accented with gold lining, combined with high-lead glass paste stones designed to emulate the sparkle of diamonds.

Authentic pieces generally display fine openwork, subtle hand-engraving, period silver hallmarks or maker marks, and hand-cut paste stones with foil backings under glass panels.

An antique locket can be displayed inside a glass cloche, presented atop a velvet trinket dish on a dressing table, or mounted inside a shadow box frame as wall decor.

Wipe gently with a clean, dry microfibre cloth to remove tarnish, strictly avoiding immersion in water or chemical cleansers that could damage the foil backing behind paste stones or loosen the glass panes.
