18K Gold Filigreed Photo Locket with Pearls

Historically, lockets were seen as protective talismans, sometimes containing not just photos but small tokens, such as locks of hair or written prayers. In this sense, a photo locket in France might represent a source of emotional strength or serve as a personal amulet. French lockets are often intricately designed, showcasing the country’s long tradition of elegant jewelry-making. The locket itself, aside from its sentimental value, symbolizes refinement and taste.
