Initially, lockets were used to carry medicines, perfumes and other such items.

Later on, lockets became mementos and included miniature portraits of loved ones. They were ideal at a time when the only way to see the face of someone who was apart from you was by looking at a painting or drawing of them. It also became popular to keep a lock of hair in lockets as a keepsake of a loved one. In addition, lockets made excellent mourning jewelry to remember someone who had passed away.

When it comes to personal jewelry, nothing is more personal than the locket. Lockets have been around for centuries and are as romantic and relevant as ever. With all the different types of lockets on offer and the endless ways to customize and style your locket, there’s bound to be a locket that captures your heart.
In general, lockets symbolize love whether it be for a friend or a lover. However, the symbolism of your locket can change depending on the style you choose. For example, heart shaped lockets symbolize love and romance. A locket with a compass on it can symbolize travel or reaching a goal.
