Lockets have been around in some form or another for hundreds of years. They emerged from jewels that might be more accurately described as vessels - meant to hold perfumes or tinctures or herbs. The locket as a holder of keepsakes - portraits (photographic or earlier), hair, and the like - rose in popularity in the 19th century and has been particularly popular during wartimes ever since, as a way to hold close to you those who are physically far. This piece charms in a uniquely geometric, elongated lozenge shape with corresponding linear ray-like engraving.

Good vintage condition with wear in line with age and use, including a few small dents; closure is secure. Please note that the St. Eloi Collection Paperclip Chain and St. Eloi Collection Trombone Chain are not included in the drop down menu but can be purchased separately.
