Hair Locket Origins

The tradition of carrying a locket with a loved one’s hair encased within is quite interesting and dates back to the Victorians. They made bracelets and necklaces using woven locks of hair. Very few examples of this exist now and in fact if you come across such an item, it could be worth a LOT of money. Later on, the custom of wearing  lockets containing locks of hair became hugely popular.

All our jewellery is suitable for holding locks of hair. For more information on hair lockets look here.
