This is a nice, well made locket for the price. It's simple and cleanly designed; its hinges seem solid; and it opens easily and closes securely. Adding to its magic, it seems to come up fairly often in Amazon's "Today's Deals" listings to offer buyers an additional 30, 40, or 50 percent off its regular price. (I bought three at 40 percent off and wear them together on a single chain.)

I'm always amazed by reviews that down-rate an item simply because it was smaller or larger than the buyer expected. Like all of Amazon's jewelry, this item's description includes its dimensions, and the locket measures up. The external "0.81 inches" clearly identified in the item description is about the size of a nickel. Inside, the locket holds photos just over a half-inch in diameter (0.57 inches, to be exact). It should be noted that there is no internal frame to hold the pictures in place, but the locket's slightly concave design allows them to be securely pressed into place so they don't move or dislodge. In fact, they seat so securely that it took some real effort to remove a photo so I could swap it for a different one.

Overall, this a nice looking, delicate locket at a great price. If that's what you're looking for, this locket won't disappoint.

This locket was dime-sized--much smaller than I had anticipated. It was also very plain and looked cheap. The mother-of-pearl locket was MUCH BETTER!

This locket was great - it was blank so I could get it engraved with my sister's childrens' initials. Perfect! She loved it.

I was very dissapointed in this locket which I purchased as a gift for my best friend who was leaving to go to China for a year. I recieved it in the mail and found that is was very cheaply made. It is not of good quality and is VERY LIGHT in weight. I thought something made of silver would be more substantial in weight but this locket is NOT. Also, it is very plain. I realize the style of this piece is simple but when I looked at it first hand it didn't even look well made. The clasp is not even a clasp that jewler's use. It is one that you can pry apart and is not welded together. Over all I was very dissapointed and would never give it as a gift to anyone. I returned it immediately.
