Vintage Locket - Astrantia 06
This incredibly beautiful locket is over 100 years old and is made from quality gold shell (inside the locket is marked ‘Gold Shell’ with the makers mark ‘H&H’ for Hamilton & Hamilton Jr, who made jewellery in Providence, Rhode Island). It encases traditionally slow-pressed astrantia flowers, organically grown in my Worcestershire garden. Complete with a lovely 50cm gold plated chain. The locket is finished in a presentation box, and contains a pretty little scroll of handmade paper detailing information about the symbolism behind the flowers.
The locket is approximately 2.3cm in length and the intricately engraved pattern is truly stunning.
Astrantia flowers symbolise protection, strength and courage.
If your locket is being purchased as a gift and you’d like to make it extra special, you can choose to add a sprinkle of beautiful naturally dried rose petals to the presentation box.

The flowers and foliage in this piece are natural; I never use preservatives, sealants, or artificial drying methods. The colours will fade and change over time.
Please note that the locket is pre-loved and therefore it does show signs of wear and tear consistent with its age. These perfect imperfections elevate the piece to give it a true vintage feel.
As with most jewellery, your locket will need regular polishing to keep it looking shiny. Please make sure the inside doesn’t get wet as this is likely to damage the delicate flowers.
