Momento | Hand Engraved Picture Locket Toggle Necklace

This is no ordinary piece of jewellery. The lockets are meant to contain actual photographs of your loved ones (including pets!). What makes this so special is that each locket is hand engraved & intricately embossed to perfection by master craftsmen in the USA, making it so befitting of the treasure it contains. 

We hope this little creation will hold your special memories for a long time to come. Even if not, the locket pendant is itself a beautiful piece of art to carry.   

Exquisite 14K gold-filled (inside and outside), which is tarnish-free and water safe, because we want you to keep this very special piece forever. That said, we think it’s best not to get it soaked, unless using waterproof photo paper.

1/20 14K Gold-Filled

Known as the "next best thing to solid gold", 1/20 14K gold-filled is superior to gold-plated and gold vermeil in quality and price. It wears like solid gold. There is at least 5% of 14K gold by weight (or 1/20) permanently bonded to the base metal.

Not all gold-filled are created equal: for example most 18K Gold-filled, though higher in Karats, has a much thinner layer of softer gold (< 3%), making it more vulnerable to wear. This makes it - ironically - cheaper than high quality 14K Gold-filled.

High quality 1/20 14K gold-filled is fade-resistant and tarnish-resistant, lasting 10-30 years even with daily wear. This makes it very sustainable. It is safe for sensitive skin, and safe to keep on while you exercise, shower and sleep. Read about it here
