Vintage Silver Shop Find: Exquisite Screw-Top Engraved Oval 925 Sterling Silver Locket Pendant

Found overseas N years ago. This is an ancient Western design, with the screw at the back serving as the lock mechanism for the locket. This small pendant is meant to hold personal keepsakes of a loved one. Some collect their lover's or family member's hair; when someone has passed away, they may keep... In such ways, Westerners express love—some might say it's obsessive, but equally it's love taken to the extreme. Of course, what you choose to put inside is entirely up to you. The heart-shaped locket measures approximately 32x23mm, made of pure sterling silver with a '925' stamp. Besides storing items, you can also place a small photo inside. It weighs about 11.25 grams. The box is engraved with 'Eternal Value 460'. If paired with this 60cm silver chain, add 120. Firm price.
