About the Item

Fifteen carat double sided Victorian locket ready for your favorite two photographs. This double sided chased 15K locket can be worn with the belt buckle motif on the one side or the old cut diamond on the other, depending on your mood! The more elaborate side was intended to be worn at night, while the more simple side was meant for "daytime" wear (those ever so practical Victorians thought of everything!) We leave it to you to decide which is the more elaborate side! The buckle and buckle motif was popularized by Queen Victoria, and the belt and buckle motif represented the Order of the Garter. The Order features the garter, which is imbued with the symbol of protection, fidelity, and loyalty. Gold chain is not included.
