The Signature Story Charm Locket

The Emerald locket measures approximately 2.5 cm × 2 cm — slightly larger than a thumbnail. Some customers are pleasantly surprised by the size. We recommend checking the size comparison photo in the gallery (locket next to a coin) to get a realistic sense before ordering. The locket comes with an 18" (45 cm) chain included.

Each locket comfortably holds up to 8 charms, depending on their size. Smaller charms like birthstones and letters fit more easily than larger ones like the Boy, Girl, or Mama. We recommend starting with 3 to 5 charms for a balanced, beautiful look — which is exactly what 87% of our customers do. You can always add more later.

Yes — and many of our customers do. The locket opens completely, so you can place a tiny lock of hair, a pinch of pet fur, a small feather, or any other flat keepsake inside alongside your charms. Just make sure it's small enough not to prevent the locket from closing. This is one of the most meaningful ways our customers use their locket.

Absolutely. The locket opens and closes easily — that's the whole point. You can swap your charms anytime to match your mood, your outfit, or a new chapter of your story. Many customers collect charms over time and change them for seasons, occasions, or anniversaries. New charms are available individually in our Secret Vault.

The locket is made from a premium brass + zircon base with an 18K gold finish. The glass face is transparent and scratch-resistant. The chain is 45 cm (18") and is included with every locket. The whole piece is designed to be worn every day — it's water-resistant, rust-proof, and tarnish-free.

No. The 18K gold finish is applied over a high-quality brass + zircon base, which means it won't tarnish, rust, or cause skin discoloration with normal wear. To keep it looking its best, avoid prolonged exposure to perfume, chlorine, or saltwater. A soft cloth is all you need to clean it.
