ABOUT THIS NECKLACE

Lockets are wearable love stories, each one a small holder of precious mementos or heartwarming images. This Victorian beauty is lavishly hand engraved, with a different design on each side, and opens to reveal one of the most exquisite and intricately composed works of hair art that we've seen. Looping locks and flowering vines (also masterfully created with hair) are accented with fine twisted gold wire and tiny seed pearls, creating an extraordinary keepsake of the original owner's loved one, while the opposite side is free to hold a special photograph of your very own. Of course your free to replace the woven hair with another picture. Crafted in 12K gold, it suspends from an intriguing variation of the Prince of Wales chain that measures 19 inches.

Sweet and sentimental with a distinct romantic streak, Victorian gems expanded upon their Georgian predecessors. The array of styles that blossomed (sometimes quite literally) during this era endure to this day.

Jewelry Care

As with anything of value, especially sentimental value, taking good care of your vintage and antique jewelry from Lang will enhance its beauty and extend its lifespan. We encourage you to have your jewelry checked and cleaned by us or by your trusted local jeweler every six months, to ensure that each piece is in good wearable condition with all gemstones in place. It’s not uncommon for stones to loosen over time, and it’s much easier to tighten a loose stone than to replace a lost one! As stated in our Repair Policy, we strongly recommend that you allow us to perform any repairs, since our jewelers are specialists in restoring vintage and antique jewelry.
