I loved this video, I am a jewelry lover too. Your locket is classic, and timeless.Wear it in good health My locket is heart shaped , it was gifted to me more then 50 years ago from my husband then boyfriend for Christmas when we were dating. I have a photo on one side of us from the 60’s and on the other side of the locket a photo of us now. It’s engraved on the back, with our names , and “Christmas 1968” I treasure it ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
My nephew passed away early this year. His parents had a locket made for each of his sisters with some of his ashes. They will be gifted them on their wedding day so that they can carry him with them resting over their hearts on their special day. Some people might find this morbid but he was a very, very special young man and the girls will treasure their lockets always.

Such an elegant, simple locket. Beautiful. I had mine for years and it's actually a family heirloom; it belonged to my maternal great-grandmother. You can tell its age by the scratched surface and pieces of the enamel inset missing. However, it is solid gold, of a craftsmanship rarely seen today. And what makes it priceless are the slight indentations/marks from my grandmother's teething. Yes, true story - she grabbed her mother's locket and as a baby and used it to alleviate the aches of her first teeth. Inside, there are old photographs of my great-grandfather on one side, and my grandmother as a baby on the other. While in my mother's possesion (since it was gifted to her first, then passed on to me), she added a cut out of my brother and I, overlaying her grandfather. (Removable, though).

Such a beautiful story ❤️
Boy, when I saw the price of those lockets, you were truly blessed to have it gifted to you!! 😲
Audrey, congratulations on your locket, it is beautiful! When my beautiful grandmother past away, twenty one years ago, I inherited two things, her locket and her spoon holder that sat on her stove. It doesn’t sound like much but with nine living children and twenty four grandchildren, I didn’t think I’d get anything. The locket is not expensive but it’s a treasure to me and whenever I wear it I feel closer to her. ❤️
I am very lucky that I was passed down my Grandmother's rectangle shaped good size locket; with both My Grandparents initials etched with simple design outside; their wedding photo inside; and my Mom's oval shaped locket with a simple scroll design and my wedding photo inside; both gold and very special to me. Your chosen locket is beautiful.
My father in law gave me a antique locket when we got married forty years ago and I still love it. It's round and quite heavy but plain on the front so still looks modern X
My son bought me a silver locket when I turned 30, don't ask where a 7 year old had acquired such an aesthetic. I have one of his baby teeth in it and a photo. Xoxo. P.S. Love that blazer.
A simple, classy, and beautiful detail. That would be a great graduation or bridesmaid's gift!
I own a fantasy locket from Disney, engraved with the words "Believing is just the beginning", a phrase so true and inspiring to me. I have a picture of my husband and son inside. It keeps me strong in rough times. Love to see that other people still cherish this kind of jewelry.
I.love your locket. You always comes with these exceptionals topics. Your pieces are unique and elegants. Thank you for sharing.What a taste!💝😊
My mother and her two sisters started a tradition where all of my grandmother's granddaughters receive lockets as gifts when they turn 16. So, all of us were given a locket when we turned 16. I have an oval one with a gold frame with little engraved vines and a silver centre with my initial in the centre, so it goes with any metal. Other cousins had different designs, but I'm glad mine was very timeless and classic. I used to wear it daily, but over the last few years I've been wearing a silver Tiffany's necklace with a horseshoe, a gift from my husband for Christmas one year. We met through horses, I used to compete and he was a farm hand, and so it was a wonderful way to mark that season of my life. I don't ride now, but it's an icon that holds great significance in my life so I'm happy to wear it :) but maybe I'll have to pull my locket out again, I think it could use a new chain.
Your voice is super soothing to listen to xxx Love the video!! 💝
Beautiful locket! This is random, but I really like the jacket you're wearing.
It is a beautiful locket @$1,395 i feel it is pricy .....you are very lucky you were gifted this locket
Your locket is lovely. I have a beautiful antique given to me by two friends for my birthday more than 30 years ago.
As always, a lovely video & a classic brilliant locket!
My locket is one of my most worn pieces. I have my son’s baby picture in it. I usually use it with a 32 inch gold chain. I love long necklaces. Your locket is beautiful. You have great classic style.
Hi Audrey, what a beautiful and high-quality locket. It will be funny to try to get all of the pets in the same picture. That should be a bloopers video for you :) Much love xx
I love solid pieces as well as it will last forever if taken care of. I have had mine for 18 years, it was a gift when I turned 13th after years of begging my mom for one, I wanted a costume jewelry one as we were poor. Mom saved up over time for my 14k heart locket. I love collecting vintage as they are not common and have very pretty details. I have my late daughter on one side and two older sons with the newest and last addition to our family my baby girl. I love feeling that I have them inside my heart it’s very symbolic for me and very special
Thank you!!! I have an antique gold heart locket that my grandmother gave me before she passed. It has a picture of my father. He passed when I was 1 yrs old. It means so sooo much to me!!!
There is a new alloy for silver called argentium, which is less prone to tarnishing. I personally wear a pair of charms on a chain (horse and horse shoe on a 1.5mm wheat chain that was given to me by my mother. It is my signature piece) Not a locket person, but the finding at the top is an interesting choice by the jeweler.
Thanks for sharing! A locket and signet ring are on my wish list. Preferably from Tiffany & Co. where I worked for many years.
I actually bought a rose gold necklace yesterday for an antique rose gold locket I'd come across a long time ago, it's so pretty, so happy, it's not just in a drawer still, so it was lovely to see this video, have to minaturize photos soon.
I collected cameos in high school and one I loved at a department store was a locket from 1928 (I think they've since changed their name to 2028?) It still has a photo of my cat at the time. I love your locket and your blouse (and the jacket on top of that) really makes it pop! It's beautiful without knowing anything about what the wearer chose to put inside.
Yaaaay this is the video I was looking for. Thank you.
Love that you put your pets in your locket! Very sweet. :)
My perfect locket came from an antique store in my hometown..a small 9k gold oval with a filigree design...don't know much about it, but it does have a unique way of opening...the front and back come completely apart with no hinge, only being held together by the gold ring the chain goes through...I love it, and my daughter has already called "dibs" on it one day! Lol
You put out such GREAT videos. I am so happy you were gifted something that looks it was meant to be for you. I personally like more detail into my jewelry. I go for Costco or my trusted neighborhood jeweler .
Absolutely stylish & chic. I too love lockets. I have one with a picture of my husband & I on our wedding day. I too chose the oval shape. I found mine at Charming Charlie's. I do want to invest in a solid gold one. Thank you for recommending Monica. Fun & fantastic video 👏👏. Cheers 😉 🌷
It's beautiful. I have a gold locket my husband gave me for Mother's Day and I love to wear it. It carries pictures of our two children, who are now adults.
I love lockets. They are a classic and timeless piece that can be handed down to future generations.
I was looking for a locket for a long time until I was in Mexico on vacation. I went to the city of Taxco. Taxco is known for their silver mines. I found my locket there in a small silver shop. My husband bought it for me and put my cats pictures inside. I love that it holds so many precious memories now.
I absolutely love your style...I am looking to have a signet ring made. Can’t wait to get it!

I am not a fan of lockets but I love to watch any and all of your videos!!!! Please make them more often and loooooonger!!!! Love and a big hug from Transilvania!
This video makes it look like you’re modeling the blazer not the locket. I chose the oval gate locket with sapphires. I love it.
What a beautiful locket! I have a locket gifted to me by my grandmother in my early teens. When I was a toddler our apartment was robbed and all the jewellery I got for my baptism was stolen. My grandmother was horrified learning this (kind of strange that she didn't realise or remember when it actually happened, but anyway) and so she bought me a locket.
Beautiful locket and beautiful jacket Audrey. Bev X
I have a similar gold oval locket given to me as a small child by my Great Aunt Una Dell. It has my initials in a beautiful script running from top to bottom. I don’t wear it much anymore, sad to say, because I find that silver suits me better. However, I love to look at and hold the locket now and then because it is one of those treasured, intimate possessions which reminds me of who I am.
I've wanted a locket for a long time just haven't found the perfect one yet 😣 thank you for the tips!
LOVE MIRANDA FRYE JEWELRY TOO!!! 💋😀
Hi Audrey! I was wondering if you would be able to make a video about caring for different types of jewelry?
You got it just right... Classically Modern...Mine slip through a buttonhole, like a vintage "watch fob"... It's got a raised floral like texture... I haven't put anything inside of it yet...
Where did u get your jewelry case i really like it
Hi from the UK! I have a silver heart shaped locket given to me by brother... yet to figure out what to out inside! xx
I ordered a 14k gold locket from a company called Pictures In Gold. They laser engraved the pictures to the locket so its permanent, not a piece of paper you cut. They can also engrave whatever you wish in the exterior of locket, lifetime warranty and its way less than $1300!
My locket is twice bigger than yours and has a flower engraved. It was a gift from my husband. He custom ordered it for me many years ago. I really wanted one but couldn’t find a nice one, but he found. It’s a very nice jewelry item, might be my favourite one. Yours looks gorgeous, enjoy.
I don’t have a locket personally, but my mom has a heart-shaped one that has a baby picture of both me and my sister in it (I’m not sure where she got it, but it might have been a gift). Yours looks lovely, Audrey! 🙂
Nice 😍 and sweet idea!
Could you elaborate on acidic skin? How does one know about their own skin pH.
My aunt gifted me a heart-shaped locket when I was little. (My mom put it up for safe keeping until I was old enough to take care for it.) I haven't found a picture that fits just yet; I'd prefer to buy a slightly thicker chain for it -- I find the original one was a little too thin and caught on my sweaters too often.
Beautiful! I also love your blazer. 😍
I don’t know how long you have had your locket or how often you wear it, but I was wondering if you have noticed any scratches or dulling on the surface as it is smooth.
Honestly? My perfect locket was found at a 1928 factory store near where my mom worked in 2003 to 2006. I was in middle school and paid $20 bucks for a golden brass gold heart shaped locket about 1.5 by 2 inches big and it’s beautiful. It gleams like gold and has a beautiful antique floral design on it. I wish it was made of solid gold but I love it was is
Your sunglasses are so beautiful!! Can you tell us from which brand they are and where we can buy it? Thank you very much in advance!
You look lovely. The locket is beautiful. That is good because is solid gold will not tarnish. Is that chain gold as well?
I would also totally wear a photo of my fur babies 🐱🐱 if I had a locket. 😍
lovely!
Wow! Such a pretty locket!

I’ve wanted one for a long time. Since a family heirloom isn’t an option for me I guess I’ll have to find a new one. Yours is lovely, but unfortunately not in the budget for a while. I’m due with my first child at thanksgiving. A locket would be a lovely memento to mark the occasion.
Is this the ‘Eve’ locket by any chance? You’ve tagged it as the ‘Anna’ but it looks like the eve? Im tossing up between those two and was curious! :)

I was gifted a locket from one of my closest friends its silver small and has a little cute design on the front im still trying to find a photo for it but i love it alot even tho im a boy lol.
Beautiful
Is this the mini ?
I love you silver locket .
Your locked is sooo GORGOUS 😍! So beautiful! I got one from my grandmother . It has the picture of my grandfather, who died in the 2nd world war in it. Sadly it is really big and with a very long chain. It is silver. I rarely wear it and since I was a child, I love lockeds and would like to have a smaller one in gold or silver. Yours is really perfection, but over my budget 🤷🏼♀️ maybe one day! Best wishes from Germany 😘
Huh, it's a pretty simple style. You couldn't find anything else like that?
My locket is gold and was given to me by my late aunt who was born in 1909. And she inherited it from her mother. So I have no idea how old it is but certainly pretty old. I hardly ever wear it , im too scared of losing it, perhaps it's stupid.
Ms Audrey, you need a new pair of jeans/Levis...the pair you're wearing look very tired. Just saying...
I love lockets. Mine was a gift from my godparents when I was a child so naturally I don't wear it often as it is too precious. I bought a cheaper one to wear more often.
