The shield cartouche represents the desire to protect the recipient. Acanthus leaves adorn the front and back of the locket. Acanthus leaves have represented immortality, rebirth and longevity since ancient times. The locket is oval with with a superbly rendered cruciform shape. Ivy leaves adorn the back. Ivy symbolises everlasting love, deep friendship, fidelity and wedded bliss.

The locket and necklace catches and hinges work perfectly. The interior case can accommodate two photographs or portraits.

We have included an ornate vermeil necklace so that this wonderful antique can be worn and enjoyed immediately.

There are so many pretty gold lockets online which are often not hallmarked gold.

To save you time we only source hallmarked gold. Hallmarked gold is remarkably durable and does not require any maintenance or cleaning. For thousands of years gold has maintained its value even in the worst of times.

All our jewellery orders are shipped in pristine velvet clad jewellery cases.
