This antique Victorian locket necklace is a beautifully preserved sentimental jewel, perfect for holding cherished memories close to your heart. Crafted in the late 19th century, the locket features a deeply engraved foliate front; ornate, swirling motifs that speak of the Victorian love of symbolism and sentiment. The matching belcher chain is substantial, hand-finished, and brimming with character. Though not made from gold, the warm golden tone gives it a glowing period charm, and its generous weight and bold links create a luxurious presence.

Why we love this necklace

This is the kind of piece that instantly evokes a sense of history. You can feel the weight of its story when you hold it, perhaps once gifted in love, or worn in remembrance. The patina adds authenticity, not just age. While delicate lockets are often tucked away, this one is meant to be seen. It invites conversation and connection, especially when you slip in your own keepsake or photograph.

Styling it today

This Victorian locket looks striking worn high on the collarbone with an open shirt or soft knit. Alternatively, layer it with finer antique chains for a curated heirloom look. It has presence enough to stand alone, yet it blends beautifully with modern and vintage jewellery alike.
