What fits inside an antique oval locket?

These compartments were traditionally designed to hold small paper photographs, hand-painted portrait miniatures on watercolour, or braided locks of human hair kept as mementoes. Modern wearers often use trimmed photographs cut to follow the internal oval shape of the frame.

How do I wear a convertible brooch pendant?

Many Victorian pieces feature a fold-down loop alongside a pin fastening, allowing the item to function interchangeably as a chest brooch or a neck pendant. Securing the pin safely when worn on a chain requires ensuring the C-clasp or safety catch engages correctly.

How do I date a Victorian silver pendant?

Dating relies on stylistic clues such as Aesthetic Movement engraving, Etruscan wirework, or specific motifs like swallows and ivy, alongside any accompanying hallmarks. Assay office marks and date letters stamped on the silver provide the exact year of manufacture where present.
