Vintage Gold Tone Round Locket Drop Earrings

Description
Two small polished lockets hang below ball studs like a pair of tiny golden moons. Made in the 1980s, they give the sentimental Victorian locket a wearable, everyday scale. Each one opens on a hinge to hold a tiny photo or keepsake. They’re light and fluid on the ear, a romantic piece with a quiet secret inside.
