9ct B&F Gold

Antique Shield Locket

Antique Shield Locket

This one has history.

A gorgeous antique front-and-back locket with a compact, satisfyingly thick little form, shaped almost like a shield itself and finished with shield motifs to both sides. One side is framed with beautiful floral engraving, while the reverse is plainer, which gives it a really lovely balance.

The gold has the prettiest warm, slightly chocolatey rose tone and the whole thing feels deliciously old in the hand.

It has quite a lot of genuine age-related wear, including patina, surface wear and some dents, and the two halves no longer sit completely flush when closed. It does still close securely and doesn’t spring open, but I want to note that the alignment isn’t perfect.

For me, though, that’s very much part of the appeal of this one. If you like antique jewellery that feels like it has actually lived a life rather than been polished into oblivion, this is such a gorgeous example. Loads of character, beautiful proportions and a really lovely bit of engraving.

Please note

The expectation with antique and vintage jewellery is that there will be normal signs of wear commensurate with age eg. scuffs and patina. Lovers of antique and vintage jewellery usually value these things for giving their piece history and character.

I make every effort to clearly list any defects above usual wear, and to take clear photos that represent the item clearly.

The photos constitute part of the description and we ask you view them carefully before purchasing.

Instalment Payment Info

We offer a traditional layaway system – not a buy-now-pay-later setup like Klarna. You pay a 30% deposit now, then two more payments over 60 days. Your piece is safely reserved, and we’ll post it out once all payments are complete.

At Trash Lobster, we think this is a more ethical way to offer flexibility – no credit checks, no predatory lenders, just time to pay at your own pace.

Want to pay it off early? Just give us a shout and we’ll sort it.
