A ring of hand-engraved five-petal blossoms and leaves circles the face of this domed oval locket, with the flowers washed in soft gold against bright silver. The back carries the same garland in plain silver, so it’s lovely from either side. Thai silversmiths made two-tone lockets like this in the 1970s, carrying on a long tradition of keepsake jewelry. It opens to two smooth compartments for a photo or a small memento, and its weight feels substantial on a chain.
