The craftsmanship on the product is superb. It is very detailed and exquisate in design. However the picture on the site appears quite large, and in actual size the locket is smaller than the picture makes it out to be. It is still very beautiful though and worth the buy.

I got this necklace for a friend's birthday and she LOVED it. Especially because it's a locket. It's kind of gothic-feminine, which is exactly what I was looking for. Craftmanship was great; no complaints here!

I gave this locket to my mom last christmas and she loved it. It looks much nicer in real life than in the picture.

My aunt wants one now too.

I fell in love with this locket the first time I saw it on Amazon months ago. I finally broke down and bought it for myself and am well pleased with the piece. It has a good weight to it and the detailing makes it look like something that has been handed down from generation to generation. I've gotten compliments on it from strangers. The only drawback I can possibly see is that the open filigree on the front of the locket would render it less than water resistant if you accidentally leave it on while showering or swimming. Any keepsake stored inside could possibly get wet.

I bought this for my wife's birthday. She loves the locket and enjoys the garnet setting (her birthstone). The seller shipped this product within a day or two, also included a pouch and plastic bag for protection. I would buy from the seller again, that's for sure.

I purchased this item for my mother for christmas. I took baby pictures of myself and my little sister, I am 25 she is 21, and placed them into the locket. It was a beautiful piece and holds a very nice sized face shot. My mother loved it. The top protion is see through. I backed one of the photos with a purple colored page and the stone looked really nice and it hid the white backside of the picture. It also arrived in perfect timing.

My brother's mother in-law LOVES marcasite, and with her being a first time grandmother, this was the perfect gift since it is a locket. The picture does not do this piece justice. It is gorgeous and the locket hinge is sturdy and easy to open. I highly recommend this necklace. She loves it!

I am very glad I decided on this locket. I just recieved it in the mail and I am in love with it. It is very pretty and isn't cheap feeling. It is a heavier locket and I think that is great, it feels like I actually have something on my neck. The only thing I noticed is that the garnet on the front sticks out a little farther than I thought it would but that isn't a complaint as much as something I have just noticed. All in all I love this locket and I think that anyone looking into this locket would be glad to wear it. I most definately recoment this as a presant to someone special or just a gift to ones self. You will love it! Also I am glad it came with a chain, I wasn't sure it would.

The chain that comes with the locket is of a very poor quality. Make sure that you have your own chain to put it on. The locket itself is beautiful. It feels heavy in your hand. I have not noticed any opening/shutting issues that were mentioned in other reviews. The back of this locket is not as decorative as the front, it is very smooth and shiny on the back. That doesn't bother me, but I thought it might bother some of you. Overall I am very satisfied.

This locket is breathtaking! It's really intricate, and feels solid as well, nothing flimsy about it. It measures 32 x 19mm and if you look at it sideways it measures almost 1.5cm at the widest. Despite its size, it has a solid weight to it. It doesn't have a flat back, it's rounded so when you have it on a chain around your neck it can flip about quite often. The front too, is rounded. However, because of its design, it means that there is ample room inside for more than just a photo. I can fit a few small gemstone chips and a very small gemstone tumblestone inside. The garnet is really genuine. It does have an open filigree design so please be careful when you have a photograph inside because if you never take off your necklace when you shower or swim (like me) you'll get it wet. There's no latch to open the locket so you need to use your nail to open it.

I truly adore it. It has an old world feel to it, like an antique jewelry my grandmother passed down to me. I saw another review on another site that described this locket as gothic feminine and it describes this locket perfectly! Love it... I actually find myself working around my wardrobe to show off this necklace!

As a side note, the photos on this website isn't very accurate. It is FAR more beautiful in person. Definitely get this, you won't regret it.
