Simplicity, Perfected.

This substantial antique locket by Carter, Howe & Co. is a beautiful example of turn-of-the-century American craftsmanship, dating to the first decade of the 20th century. Deliciously round and wonderfully tactile, it has a satisfying weight and retains its original, rich, velvety bloomed finish.

One side is perfectly smooth and unadorned, a study in elegant restraint, while the other features a flourished hand-engraved monogram — now more ornamental than personal — a reminder that this locket was once a deeply sentimental treasure. Inside, it retains its original frames and covers, ready to receive your own photos or cherished mementos.

We love the scale of this locket — large and statement-sized, but never overpowering. Style it on a period chain, whether long or short. Gorgeous paired with a romantic filigree chain for contrast, or layered with your other favorite chains and pendants.

A truly heirloom-quality locket and a shining example of fine American jewelry craftsmanship at the dawn of the 20th century.
