The Violetta Locket: Artisan Crafted in Italy

Have you ever wanted to wear a piece of art that tells a story? With our Violetta Locket, you can!  It features Italian craftsmanship and hand-etched floral details, all wrapped up in a beautiful gold necklace you can wear close to your heart every single day. 

The Violetta Locket is crafted by hand from start to finish in a small town near Vicenza, Italy, by a family of master goldsmiths. This family business, much like ours, uses knowledge passed down for generations to create beautiful pieces that are made to last. 

The Veneto Region in northeastern Italy is known for its time-honored traditions and artistic culture. The Violetta Locket serves as a time capsule that captures the history and romance of the region.

The goldsmiths use specialty techniques to bring this locket to life. First, a perfectly thin gold plate is created, then pressed by hand to shape the locket into two hearts. The hearts then come together, welded with care to open and close so you can keep your memories inside. Once the locket is crafted, its elegant gold surface is polished and prepared for the floral design.

Then, the engraving phase begins. A floral design is created and etched on the surface. The artisans  add details to the design with expert precision. Next is the satin finishing or milling phase, always done by hand, to “color” the internal parts of the flowers and leaves. Each design is beautiful and unique to the artist who created it.

There’s a special connection between the artistry of the locket and the floral design. Flowers  represent love, respect, friendship, and gratitude with their delicate petals and intricate details. The Violetta Locket captures the essence of pressed flowers, etched into gold to last a lifetime and beyond. 

Wear this stunning locket to carry on a legacy of artistry and beauty. Make it even more meaningful with a treasured photo or small keepsake, creating an heirloom piece that speaks to your story.
