These vintage sweetheart engraved lockets are beautiful and filled with personality. Soldiers in the 1940's took Prince Albert’s original romantic gesture and cue and cut out heart-shaped photographs of themselves intended to be worn by their paramours until they returned from distant shores. A modern day definition of (a) relationship long distance that is now passed from one romantic generation to the next.
Each locket is one-of-a-kind, and in some cases, over 100 years old. Each has unique wear and tear that adds to the charm and history of the piece. This locket showcases cz stars and a moon on it's face with the words "I love you to the moon and back". Measures 1" by .75". Stamped "Hong Kong"
This piece is just the locket, does not come with a chain.
