Sandcast Silver Locket

A locket is a truly timeless piece of jewellery. Our sandcast imagining of the classic keepsake was handmade from hinge to clasp, and gave a satisfying snap when closed.

The oval shape fits comfortably between finger and thumb, reminiscent of a beach pebble smoothed by the ocean. Casting the silver in Sennen beach sand imparted each side with a unique dappled texture, adding to the beautiful tactility of the locket.

We added a small lipped edge inside to keep a small picture in place each side and hung the locket on a matching silver curb chain.

This sandcast silver locket was one of a kind, sold from the Off the Bench Peg, a space in which our jewellers are given total freedom creatively, using reclaimed materials to craft one-off & bespoke pieces. 

We always welcome commissions inspired by these unique designs, so do please get in touch if you would like to discuss your own ideas. We imagine a locket reimagined in gold would be rather lovely!
