A softly aged heart locket with a garden caught mid-bloom. The front is engraved with a full sunflower blossom trailing into scrolling leaves and vines, while the reverse carries a fine florentine texture, worn smooth in places by decades of touch. Inside, one panel is left plain for a photo, the other continues the floral engraving. A quiet, romantic piece with the warmth of old gold.
