Necklaces with a photo inside – also known as lockets. Or more precisely, the correct term for this type of jewelry is medallion locket.
Most lockets can hold two photos – one on each side – as you might be able to spot in the image above.
As with many other trends, necklaces with space for a photo are making a strong comeback, and the selection of lockets is growing by the day.

Carry Your Loved Ones Close to Your Heart with a Locket Necklace
Do you wish to keep your loved ones close to you, right on your heart? Then a necklace with a beautiful locket is a perfect way to do so. Here, you have the opportunity to capture two meaningful pictures in the jewelry, one on each side, which you can open and switch between.
As shown in the picture here, it could be a photo of your grandparents, but it could just as well be a picture of your children or your partner. This personal and heartfelt way of carrying your nearest and dearest with you is especially valuable, especially when you miss them and they are not nearby.
Nothing can replace the feeling of missing a loved one, which is why a necklace with pictures is a fantastic way to remember them. They will always be with you, no matter where you go and what you do in life.
With a picture necklace, you not only get a piece of jewelry but also a small treasure chest filled with precious memories and moments that will be cherished in your heart forever.
Regardless of the choice of material or shape, lockets can be opened and closed. On one side, there are hinges – in the jeweler's language, they are called "charniers" – while the opposite side features a small clasp.
This locking system lasts for years, allowing you to open and close the locket time and time again.
Yes, they are incredibly durable. I inherited a gold-plated locket from my long-deceased great-grandmother Ane, who had placed two pictures of her newborn twins in the locket – my grandfather and his brother.
They were born in November 1919, so that locket has now been around for 100 years. It can still open and close with a crisp click, and even though it's "only" gold-plated, it's still incredibly elegant.
It's almost like with the Dagmar Cross, which also passes down from person to person. Here, I have an ancient silver Dagmar Cross lying around that I can't even remember where it came from anymore, but it's still beautiful; it just needs a quick polish.
Treasure Chest
Lockets have been and continue to be used to store precious treasures: a small photograph, a lock of hair, a scent, a souvenir, or something entirely different that holds great significance for the person wearing the jewelry.
You'll find lockets mentioned in countless love novels and stories, in movies and theater productions. Maybe it's just me, but lockets seem to possess a kind of charisma associated with brave warriors and strong-willed women, exuding courage and determination. To put it briefly, they are something truly special.
